Default seat question for ek hatch

hey im new to hondas i just bought myself a 97 hatchback a few weeks ago and have noticed that the stock seats really suck! getting back pain after driving for a few hours an was wondering what kind of seats would be best in my civic. looking for comfort and since im new to hondas something that is easier to install looking for 2 new bucket fronts and if possible back seat what seats will fit?

i have s2k seats in my car and i really like them. you can only bolt up 3 bolts but you can swap out the rails like i did. i think they are the best. next to that i would use teggy seats. they are really nice but again you can only do 3 holes unless you swap the rails.

alot of people recomend del sol seats. i have the same situation as you though, the factory seats are horrible in 96-00 civics.

del sol seats sit too low for me. Integra seats are so comfortable and sits high so you can see the road and stuff.

If you do buy the integra seats, switch the rails you have on now over to the integra seats and your set! It's a very straight forward swap so you can't really mess up. The pair of front seats should run you roughly $100 give or take.

I also recommend s2000 seats but done the proper way by swapping the seat pans... You get all the comfort and style of the s2000 seats with OEM fit...

Del Sol seats do sit very low in the back. But they're super comfortable. If you're "bigger" sol seats can be awkward, just something to think about.

I had a set of sol seats and also a set of integra seats in my 6th gen civic, I personally preferred the del sol seats.
