I am getting a set of del sol seats for free, i dont have them yet but i was wondering if the seat pans will swap or if i should prepare myself for some fabrication to get these sexy bitches in there. Thanks for the input!

Hmm, not 100% sure if the pans will swap over, but i don't see why they would not since you can do the same thing with "EG" seats. Either way, you are in for some work to get them to fit into a CRX.

there has got to be a write up somewhere of someone who has done this.... I just want to know if welding will be required to do it the right way.

 

[Baker]

I hate to say this, but search H-T. I know there is lots of info pertaining to this on there.

Seat pans are NOT the same,but you can swap the seat pan bottoms.
Hope that helps.

yeah, i was searching honda tech for a while... alot of threads had the same information. There is no combination of rails that is a perfect fit, the pans dont match up to swap them, and 3 of the 4 holes will line up but the 4th needs to be worked on or welded to work safely.

I was amazed out of all those people asking, im sure one actually went through with the job. So why the cracker jack didnt anybody have a post installation write up on what they wound up doing?

I guess ill have to do it after ive completed my installation

Because people are lazy, and when they have to research to find how to complete a project, they want others to go through the hassle they did.

But that's not you, right? :wink: Make that write-up once you're done!

Lazy bastard would be more accurate, I've got GSRs but I ghettoed them in and I need to rework some mount points before I want to post them online. Otherwise I know for a fact I'm going to get flamed, because if I hit a wall doing 80 mph the seat will shear a bolt or two. Fact of the matter is, the car and me would be toast even if they didn't, but I want the seats not to do it before I show others what I've done.

Its still a pan swap, so there's not much mystery. I'm happy to help with any suggestions too if you have questions. Mine don't fit perfect, but they're passable, and comfy.

I will provide a writeup after all is said and done with. This fact alone will push me to do the cleanest and safest performing installation that i can possibly do. No 3 out of 4 bolts garbage, if your going to install something the payoff is always better when you take the time to do it right. Lots to look foreward to and i will keep everyone posted on the progress.

Thanks for the suggestions! 8)

coz posted a link to some info on re-fitting prelude seats, IIRC that involved some angle iron to get a mount for 1-2 bolts, might help provide inspiration:

I have been trying to research this same topic for my 1g. I don't have the seats yet, but have my 1g rails. I haven't found anyone who has done it and explained it.........yet. Good luck and keep us posted, please.
