well the seats look nice and well a bit comfy....

but your gonna have to customize a way to bolt them up....

the way id suggest is use your seat rails weld up a plate of metal and bolt them up

unless they have an adapter bracket to your civics bolt pattern your kinda out of luck with any other choice....

well id say it looks like its built decently and you can use a race harness with it since it has the sides cut out

and with it being light weight id say go for it

They look pretty nice. One thing a friend of mine ran into was he bought a set of seats, and didn't realize that they didn't recline, which imo would be uncomfortable.

since you probably dont want waste alot of money why not get some recaro srd replica's.....there cheaper and look good. just my 2 cents

Becouse it will be a pain in the ass.... and i really mean that.
If you buy more expencive, as a said, sparco or bride, or recaro, it will be more comfortable. :thumb:
