I received my new Corbeau CR1 seats..the problem is I can't seem to get the brackets bolted onto the car. I ordered the proper part for the 95 Civic...but the holes on the sedan don't see to fit at all with those of the bracket..
did anyone else have this problem?

Are they close at all? Sometimes you need to put the front two in and just barely thread the bolt. This allows a little more "play" when you are lining up the rears.

not at all.. (i'm taking a pic later tonight..)
if I line up the two front holes..the rear ones are ~1/4" off center..and the rear-left end of the bracket is some 1.5" away from the floor..

Here are some pics:
(notice the gap..this is with bracket bolted in the front.. )


Finally..notice how the Corbeau bracket fits within the OEM seat rail:

UPDATE: I spoke with Corbeau USA (no comments about their Canadian division...
) and they offered to make me custom brackets that would fit
to Corbeau...
to me not having the seats in asap...

You just need to bend them a little... Find a shop that will heat it up a little.. and bend it... Don't deal with corbeau.. You'll never get your brackets back right first time... That's what happened to me.. I have the same situation when I got my CR1s. My seats sat there for 2 months b4 I just go to a shop. bend just the front part... took 10 mintues and cost nothing...
good luck...
One question, I've just moved up to Vancouver from Cali. Thinking about selling my parts... What's the best site up in Canada?
I'm putting this one back to stock and selling some of the stuff on it..
BTW, I'm selling my Corbeau Black CR1 with rails(will fit for sure) for 92~95 civc
thanks,

well...Corbeau kept insisting that the bracket would fit in a 92-95 Civic..and I kept telling them no it wouldn't..
I had tried it in another 95 Sedan, a 92 Si HB, and a 93 Coupe...that bracket didn't want to fit.
I'll just take it to a shop to get it welded to fit the car...

hopefully Corbeau will work something out for you...
