Next Wednesday these baby's will be installed. The shop checked them out and said no problem. $100 to fit them. I'm gonna shoot some pics tommorrow of the seats in and out of the car to give you guys an idea of what it will look like compared to the stock seats.

Cool, let us know how it works out. My concern would be that it would be too low, and of course I'd have to get it reupholstered to match the interior Where'd you get them? I was looking for some a while back for the CRX, but all the used prelude seats I found in good shape were going for like $400+...

WEll.. if my freakin' Brackets for my Corbeau seats ever come in....

yeah the first thing i ordered this summer was seats.. the maxima seats really suck for lateral support.. i kept sliding my *** around when i took turns..

well. if ur interested in corbeau seats.. there is currently a group buy for them... at groupbuycenter..

FTI, i got two A4 reclining touring seats, and brackets for $660.00 shipped, no tax.

that's pretty good considering shipping seats and brackets are close to $100, tax is like $50 and the regular price on the seats are $50 more than what i paid for them...

The Prelude seats I got are black leather. I've just got to get a leather back seat out of a trashed Max now.

CRX seats are freaking sweet (I had a 90 CRX Si), but they are way to tiny for such a large car. The Prelude seat are only 1/2" narrower than the stockers. They look exactly the seats in a 911.

Chebosto got a hell of a deal on his seats and they are sweet looking, but I didn't have the cash. I got the 'lude seats for $200. Seriously guys, it is a lot easier than you think to fit seats from another into your own. Most shops will just weld extension bars on the brackets and use the stock mounting locations.
