hehe, pretty sure if its direct bolt on, most ppl have already done it by now.
so yeah, you will need buy some sparco bracket and sliders unless you wanna mod your oem ones.

[dezod]

You need aftermarket brackets and sliders.

u need new ones.. im installing mine right now using my stock ones..but you have do the following...

1. Remove the stock brackets for ur stock seats ( by either banging them off or using a drill bit to drill through the bearing the realease them pain in the ass)
2. Find some short of bracket/connecter to mount ur stock brackets to ur new sliders
3. Get a metal extension to fill the gap to the holes on the floor( the new sparcos are alil more thinner then stock seats and there is a gap that will need to be extending to reach the bolts)
(If not using harnesses)4. Take off ur oem seat belts carefully and drill them into ur new Torinos or metal bracket. connect the srs if you have them back to the seat belt.

Installation guide for Racing seats w/ OEM brackets & sliders

a GUIDE, I found this @ honda-tech, I was thinkin of doing this, but this guy already made a guide with pics & measurements, helped me out and saved me a few hundred in the process, very good DIY. Just take an extra 5 mins to double check all the measurements on your particular app b4 cutting/drilling.

Oh and maybe this post should be moved to tech now, since it has some technical info now.

is 2002 SI seats are (direct) bolt on to our car? how about 00SI? do they fit perfectly?

[X-R8ED]

they should, but Ill double check with my buddys 99 sir and my brothers 02 sir, and Ill get back to you in a bit. I think TeLLy from the EL section has the 02 SiR seats in his ride, and if i remember correctly he just bolted them in.

[X-R8ED]

I post actual pics of our mounts, the plate, and the whole thing being assembled and complete. Save & open for better quality.

[X-R8ED]

If you have a 7th gen coupe/sedan the seats from an 02-04 Si/SiR hatch will directly bolt-in to your car for sure any other generation Im not sure on.
