Default Racing Seats

Hey guys I want to eventually buy some used racing seats for my 2000 Si and I was wondering if they are universal or do certain brackets only fit certain cars or something?

Certain brackets fit certain cars for the most part. If you know anybody with a welder, you can modify the stock brackets to fit the new seats fairly easily though.

Ok well say I found some seats that were used on a civic; can I expect a fit or is it a car by car thing?

They should fit, but it depends on the generation civic they were originally in.

I, as well as many other civic owners have posted a thread trying to figure out what seats from other cars will swap into an EK. If anyone would like to help me start this ever-so informative thread on what seats will bolt right in to a 6th gen civic (or fit with minor modifications). If you have done a seat swap from another honda, acura, etc, and know it fits, how hard it was to put in, and what the seating position is like compared to stock, then post a reply.


fit perfect

96-00 Civic seats

bolt in fit (may require swapping one or both rail(s))

Del sol seats
94-01 Integra seats
92-95 Civic seats
CRX seats
01-05 Civic seats

fit by welding

91-96 Prelude seats
97-01 Prelude seats
02+ RSX seats

fit by swapping seat pan & rails

S2000 seats


more info on years that fit as well as some more seats would be appreciated.
also if any information is wrong let me know.

It would be cool to get harnesses but its not as important as the seats.

never use a harness on the streets...the chances are greater it'll hurt/kill you. use the factory belts.
