Icon2 What do I need to complete my rear seat setup (98 civic 3dr) ?

Hello all, I have a question.
What do I need to have in order to put a DC2 rear seat to my 98 civic 3dr?
Currently there are no rear seats on my 98 civic and I'm looking to buy one.
The seller said that the rear seats from a DC2 will work, is there something special that I need ?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance!

What's wrong with a Civic back seat?

They wont fit correctly.

There will be a gap, and they will not bolt on correctly.

That is for coupes. I don't even think a 4 door seat would come close to fitting in there.

1-2"

Sort of swaping the seat backs you can't fix it.


I don't have a clue what you'd do for the cushon.

That looks terrible. You might as well save up for ctr seats.

If your wanting leather rear. Seats out of an RSX will work. the backs bolt right up but the bottom has to have slight mods. Unless your rear seat snaps into a plastic holder then I think it will snap right in.
