Default RSX-S seats in a s2000?

I'm just curious if this has ever been done? I have black leather RSX-S seats and I was thinking about putting them in my S2k. My s2k seats KILL my back, to the point that I don't enjoy driving the car. The rsx seats are more comfortable and have lumbar support, which is HUGE for me. Anyways, I was curious if anyone has done this before or if its possible. I know rsx seats sit much higher but I don't want to spend tons of money on seats. Please let me know if this is possible or not. If not ill just keep suffering with my stock seats.

It is very possible. There are companies out there that can make you custom seat rails for any car.

I'm going to measure the width of them compared to my stock seats because they look much wider. If it don't work, I'm going to just stuff a pillow behind my back when I drive lol

im with him. I've owned an RSX before, as well as putting S2000 seats in my old Integra, and Now I have an S2000 as well, and I figure that if you put the seats in the S2000, they will make you sit way too high up even at the lowest setting because the seats are beefier. But if you do end up trying anyways, make sure you get 05-06 RSX seats. They were made completely different than the 02-04's are look nicer and more comfortable

So, I never tried it. It looks as though they are going to make me sit way too high and also they look too wide. Oh well. I'm just going to sell the rsx seats.

The RSX seats are a bit taller than s2000 seats. I have seen them in Integras and they still look bad due to the fact that they are so bulky and big.

Dont get me wrong, they look good...........in an RSX.

I agree with the OP I would like some lumbar support. I've seen them in a RSx seats in a 5th gen civic looks nice.

Look at the interior space in a civic and s2000. There is a huge difference. They look ok (when paired up with the right rails) on civics, but s2000s benefit most from either stock seats, or aftermarket.

The RSX seats are more plush, wide, and taller than the s2000 seats. They would look absolutely ridiculous in an s2k, that in turns means, that they will take up more room and cause the cockpit to be even tighter than what it is now. Hence, why you dont see many s2000 drivers with RSX seats, not one.

anything can happen if you make your own rails. but i personally think that would be a downgrade.
