Default 1994 Civic EX, driver's seat seems "soft"

I was at work yesterday and had to get something behind my driver's seat so i folded the seat forward and left it folded when I went back inside the building. When I left work to go home I put the seat back, got in, adjusted the seat back 2 clicks (my usual setting) and drove home. I noticed the lower back area was soft and not really supportive. I pressed on it with my hands and it was softer than the passenger seat.

When I got home I sat in the passenger seat and it definitely is firmer.

Has this happened to anyone? Maybe the springs fell or shifted? The feel is similar to the 1994-2000 Integra driver's seat with the adjustable back support at the softest setting. There's no support on the lower back, just on the sides of the seat.

That's weird. I don't think there are any springs in those seats, just foam. I could be wrong though. Either way, they suck lol

My thoughts exactly. The seats don't last forever. They start to deteriate over time and depending on your weather conditions. Time to find some Del Sol or Integra seats. Really depends on what you like. With Del Sol's you have to swap rails
