Any integra seat is a "night and day" difference over stock Ek seats!!! Here's my EM1 with 01 Teg fronts

Let's see...

- they sit lower
- they are way more comfortable
- the bolsters are much larger and hug for better support in cornering
- drivers seat has lumbar

also, if you have a DX, the tilt forward on the passenger seat feature is better on the integras

I got some LS seats (they were tan) for dirt cheap, cleaned them up and painted them black with fabric paint... I'll try to take pictures later. They look sick, but unfortunately they paint wears a little fast, they're starting to fade now.

Woot! Integra seats ftw! I put in a set of LS seats no long ago. The 98+ Integra seats has the lumber support for driver side. The Integra seats are wider, slimmer, and stiffer. Also, it hugs your body more when you throw turns and all that jazz. However, the DC rails don't mount on completely, the inner rear mounting point is misaligned and I just swapped the EK inner rails and bottom outer rail riding stock Civic height...

Deetz did you swap it to the EK rail or kept it DC rails and custom fit that mounting point?

Yes, on ek's you need to swap the inner rail for the stock one, took me 15 mins to do

If you have an eg, they bolt right in!!

I sat in my friend's car today and he had some Si seats on his hatch.... I never want to feel Civic seats ever again.... They feel like couches with no support whatsoever. LOL

nice.. you can actually get rid of those gaps if you buy some stock civic hatch rear seats and take the upholstery out of the frame and interchanged them around with the itr seats like I did.. then just use the stock civic frame

I have LS Integra seats in my EJ8. I will never own a civic without having some teg seats. I have had 5 Intagras and this is my first Civic and the seats were the first thing to go. I actually traded my stock seats for a set of Tenzo R fully adjustable racing seats. Then I traded the racing seats for a car. LOL
