any update? did you try putting the seats in yourself at all before you took them to your friend and the machine shop? i'm not so interested in changing out my backseat as much as the front two since my leather is torn up. i was just curious how they line up when you put in the driver and passenger and how much modification is actually needed. planning on buying a set and doing it myself. i can always go to my friend's shop if needed.
i also wanted to know how low you actually sit now compared to before. i have my driver seat as low as it goes, so compared to that. thanks!

i feel like the seats dont go low at all in our cl's.. i feel like im sitting up high, ive only got an inch or two between the top of my head and the headliner and my seat is as far down as it goes

im 6'1, 34 inch legs, so im pretty evenly proportioned. it could be the way i position my seat too, i have the seat one notch back from completley upright and my lumbar all the way out. i sit fairly straight up. side efffects of a shitty back.

and also they are no lower than before nor does it slide back as far as stock power seat did
was a waste of money imo...

try tilting the front of your seat up and the back down thats how i am most comfortable in mine
the rsx seat sits the same hight as the cl one did i belive

it was lots of work all the brakets had to be cut and moved or new ones made due to the angle or the bracket not lining up with the floor ... none of the stock brackets fit or lined up.

did you cut the base off the stock seats and then have them mounted/welded to the bottom of the rsx seats? i've read a lot of DIY's on other boards (civic/accord/prelude) how much did it cost you for labor in the end? i'm really interested in doing it still since my seats are all torn up. i prefer oem parts to racing seats so rsx seem to be the most affordable/nicest looking/comfort option. my powerseat doesn't flip up anymore either, nor does the heated seat work for the driver. i'm not the tallest (5'8") so not being able to move back as far isn't a big problem for me either.
and yeah maybe not a complete waste of money they do ook better but all in all i eneded up paying 400 i think... its in the above
250 for seats and 150 for welding and time i proy paid to much for the welding but ohwell

blackack, you're a freak of nature haha, i kid i kid. but when i read that post, it reminded me of police academy, when they had to take out the driver and passenger seats in the pinto so hightower could drive it from the rear seats hahaha.

no nothing was cut off of the stock seat, the guy that did the work turned the stock seat upside down and made a template from the underside of the stock seat brackets (the side that would touch the floor) then cut off all the tabs from the rsx seat made 3 new ones to fit the angle and moved the long flat one in and up some.

is it possible to remove the latches off the CL seats and attach them onto the RSX seats? I'm about to pick up a passenger seat for now, found a really good deal on it. Gonna wait till I can find a driver seat for a reasonable price.

As to the 4pt. harness, I know they are "safer", but it might be a bit too much. esp since my 3.0 CL is all show and no go, it would make me think my car is even slower. i've driven cars with 4 pt harnesses, makes you want to really tear shit up. for me, it would be like having a fake blow off valve and no turbo. it's my DD/commuter. i just want the interior to have an updated OEM look and feel.

LOL very true, ive never sat in rsx seats so i dont know how they hold you, but im thinking of getting one for my stock seats, just because its a freaking slip and slide around the bends.
looking on ebay.. you can get a pair for sub 35$ generic black blue red. plus i have little faith in my one airbag doing anything aside from burning me and my 3 point just doesnt seem right. i had a 5 point i my mr2, damn i felt safe as hell.
