Seat fitment in 88 Civic

hey guys, i was just wondering what seats will bolt in to my 88 civic 4dr. i heard 88 crx seats don't fit w/o modification, so i was wondering if seats from a 4dr DA integra would?

any input would help, thanks

for the DA seats you'll need still to modify the rails, but by not much.

At the most you might have to drill and use some spacers or a custom bracket to fit the seats....I had to use one del sol rail and one Crx rail to put del sol seats in my car and the back hole didnt line up so I had to get creative....

Doubt it. Why don't you just try your brothers.

I'm surprised nobody has tried DA Integra seats.
