well....considering the guy has a real mugen steering wheel, guage cluster (i think), and shift ****.....i would think those seats are prolly real.....if he has the money to spend 800 on harness's he prolly has the money to buy real mugen seats.........i dont though i could be wrong

They are real Mugen seats. I have those seats and I have the same problem with the thing around the seatbelts. The only different thing are the seat rails, mine are red.
I love those seats

they're fake. infact everything about that crx is fake. you think that that's a real rhd? think again. its just a reg lhd crx inverted in photoshop. fake rhd, fake mugen steering wheel fg370, fake seats, fake shift ****, and definitely fake gauge cluster. tenzo these days. gotta love them.

Lol, it's somebody that got banned and hates h-t now. lol

BTW: those look real compared to the ones in the mugen catalog

if it was a photoshopped image, then the CR-X on the floor mats would read X-RC, but they dont. so its not photoshopped.

the speedometer and RPM on the gauge cluster would also be reversed, but they'renot.. so again, its not photoshopped.

Look at the Guage cluster, does the RPM needel on a LHD car sit on the right or left side??????????

Those seats are real. I had a problem with the harness rubber bending like that when I had my seats.

I believe TENZO doesnt make fake mugen seats yet

edit: BTW... Mugen never made rails for anything Pre 92. Casino's using MOMO rails with Mugen emblems on them

its on the left. however, looking at that picture again, its not clear if its the speedo or the RPM on the RIGHT side. if you look at the LEFT side, it shows a bit of redline area.. but again, i can't see it clearly.

Man, stop the arguing, I have seen that car in person and its a REAL DEAL RHD car, not some inverted photo bullshit.


AND if the photo was inverted to " enhance the RHD look " the CRX on the floor mat would be XRC instead dont you think?

My car was an 88. The seatbelts were attached to the frame of the car both male and female sides. From the pictures or in person it seems like the latch is attached to the seat when it wasnt, it was attached to the frame and came up from the side of the bracket to look like it did. I had harnesses for the car but it made it real hard driving it daily. Plus I had a court order to remove them for my own and emergency service unit in the event in an emergency ( apparently firefighters might not know how to unlatch a harness in a crash ).

Did they make cloth rear seats in the RHD crx's? Or are they upholstered?
