As for my recent experience in seats... ITS A PAIN IN THE ASS!! u get the seats and the holes dont line up. or the Seats dont fit to the bases. I had to get the tabs cut off and welded from my old EJ8 seats to the new EM2 seats. I try to make things the right way and not to half-ass it like half of Miami with the 3-bolt method, twisting and trying to make them fit.

But as for your question, IMO, Check out www.ProCivic.com and they have replica seats that look good and if they dont fit right, they have good cust service. They also have the rails and bases too.

But this is just my opinion thru experience. Your results may vary.

they are built like crap and are not comfortable, bride/recaro IMO.
i know. but i cant seem to force myself into spending that much money into seats. its not a big issue. its just sucks when i have to take long trips. i think i have to sit in some seats to know for myself. im 5'4. gets kinda roomy in some of the deep bucket seats.

I have NRG seats in my civic and they suck...ripped...foam you sit on has broken and I sit on the frame of the seat sides...

Best $$$ I spent on a car was on an authentic set of seats when i upgraded to my Mazdaspeed3 seats a month ago...there is a difference in quality/feel/support of the two...well worth the money...

Got mine off ebay and they arent the best...a great definition of "u get what u pay for" They look pretty good but probably won't last more than a year. If u have access to welding tools that will make the process a little easier but if not, plan on spending alot of time figuring out how to make them fit.

ScratchNSniff - those seats rule btw

your stock seats will be 1000x more comfortable than any NRG piece of junk...

^ Yeh agreed but the "frame" or something broke in a few places and I had metal pieces sticking up through the fabric, poking me whenever it was most convenient

no i definately want two matching seats. and yes reclinable would be best. and i got to thinking, i would like it to be OEM seatbelt friendly.

either OEM integra seats or start saving more money..

400 dollars is not going to buy 2 quality aftermarket seats.

yah i agree with this guy above me, its hard to dish out 1000 bucks for some seats, that im not really sure my big ass will fit in, id like to try them mfers out and see if i need to stick with oem before dishing out that kinda money, specially with the economy sucking balls like it is, cause if i dont fit, the seats are useless, and no one will pay full price for them again, so f**k that
