I have a 00 Si. I also have a ride side DC5R Recaro seat. What exactly will I need to buy and do in order to install this right side Recaro seat into the driver side of the 00 Si?

I don't want to have to cut and reweld brakets. Rather just buy new and correct fitting brackets. Where can I buy a bracket? I checked ebay and wasn't sure which I need. I also know I am going to have to swap the seatbelt latch. How is this done? What else?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

 

Seat pan swap

 

What is a seat pan swap? Never heard of it...

I am looking at brackets, but not sure which I need....

This is my first time with a seat install.

Thanks for any help.

 

too lazy to explain, just search it lol

 

From what I can tell, I'd rather get a bracket or whatever I need. I'm just not sure which bracket is lets me put a DC5r seat into my 00 Civic....

 

EK9 rails

 

WRONG!!!


OP: You need OEM EK9 CTR rails for the driver side, or bottom mount Recaro rails meant to fit a 96-00 Civic. Wedge Engineering makes rails or you can buy pre-made Bride RO rails. There are a few manufacturers in Japan, but you probably won't be able to obtain them unless you use a YJA service.

 

Where is the best place to get the OEM CTR rails? I can't find any....

Would either of these fit (assuming I can just buy the left side)?

make your car rhd, problem solved

 

Both will work. However, Vision one-touch sliders will be hard to get in the US since there aren't anymore distributors/

 

how am I wrong? please explain,the only reason I suggested seat pan swap is because he has a Passenger DC5R seat and he wants to put it on the driver side and I already told him he needs EK9 rails.READ ALL THE POSTS BEFORE YOU POST.

 

Because you can't do a seat pan swap. The right or left Recaro seat can be used as either the driver or passenger seat. The bolt pattern on the bottom is the same with either seat. The only difference is the recliner **** will be either toward the middle or outside of the car depending on which seat you have and what side you put it on.

As you could see, I only quoted your first post. Please refer to the context before replying. And I did read your last post, but since you claim you were lazy and told the OP to search, I provided a more detailed answer.

 

It would've been better if you made it more clear by saying my first post was wrong and my third post is right,but it's okay LOL

 

that was my second post

 

I just ordered the bracket and slider from Wedge Engineering. Should be good to go in about a week and a half..... Hopefully everything works out....

 

How much was it, if you don't mind me asking?

 

Around $209.00 for a bracket and slider....
