I don't think that's the case...

I had a set from a 93 teg and they wouldn't swap rails with my 93 ex civic seats... there is NO way to do it from what I saw..

Maybe you could swap the seat pans but I don't think so...

It wouldn't be that much of a stretch to cut off the mounting tabs off the existing rails and have new ones welded on and drill new holes that line up... they aren't far off at all...

Ya abuddy of mine had done this swap, he said only 3 holes line up, and if your not happy with that, nothing else short of major modification can be done

Swapping the rails out will not work. I already looked at my DA seats and some ITR Recaro seats (along with some stock Civic rails... same as the ITR) and the lengths are off. When I put the ITR seats into my DA, using the EG/DC rails, only 2 holes lined up so I had to redrill and retap 2 new holes and it fits perfectly. Same would apply for the DA seats into an EG but they sit lower and didn't want to clear over the front hump on the floor. Unless you fab/weld up some EG rails to the DA seat, it's not really going to work that well.

the 90-93 teg seats I had, had ENTIRELY different rails then my civic ones... they mounted at the side of the pan and had the seatback hinge integrated into them... where as the civic rails just mounted to the bottom of the pan and the seatback hinge was seperate....

But like mentioned 3 holes DID line up and the last one could be made to fit with some welding...

If it wasn't my only car I was going to chisel off the rail mount tabs off the front of my stock civic seats and see if they would go onto the teg rails and make it fit but I think the teg rails where narrower than the civic ones... or vice versus.
