the point on the front right lines right up , you're gonna have to make some customs brackets and bolt them up or weld them lik ei did to make the other 3 fit.

I don't have pics of my brackets, but when I had them installed, my friend used my stock rails from my 90 Si hb. It was a lot of work welding and **** but it worked awesome, looked stock and they still slid back and forth and all that good stuff.......It took about 2 hrs per seat to do it.....worth it though

I have 97 Del Sol seats in my 89 CRX si. My dad an i fabricated the mounts an welded them in so that the seat simple bolts back in like the seats were oem. I'll barrow my friends digital camera and take some pics to post.

I don't have any pics, but a tip. The inner front mount on both seats, drill out the rivets and swap from one to the other. bolt the outer front in the car still atached to the seat and weld the mounts back on the opposite. worked great for me, positioned them well too. then drill out the outer rear and weld it back on to fit. the flat inner rear is up to you. i haven't changed it yet.

yup welding is about the best way...you can drill a hole through the rear left side on the drivers side through the floor and put a bolt there to hold it in place...nut on the exterior. And same for passager except on the right side...just drill a hole through the floor and nut and bolt will work. One of the fronts lines up. Front right side for the drivers side. The the other side is goin to be needing some welding. thats how it was in my 88si.

instead of welding i made a bracket to fit for my crx. ON the front drivers side the right side lines up. So i bolted that down. On the left side its about 2 inches from the orignal hole. So i cut a strip of hard steel painted it black. Drilled 2 holes in it. one on each end. I mounted the one side to the del sol slider and the other side was lined up pretty well with the hole. So there is a strip of metal about 2 inches long connecting the hole to the seat. I used lock washers to make sure it wouldtn move. Then on the back i drilled a hole through the floor and put a bolt and nut and washer on for that. And the other side sits there. Its sturdy as can be and ill be able to take them out sometime and sell em if i want.
