Rep Power: 360 s2000 seats would be unique, but i would still go with some aftermarket ones, like sparco torinos or something similar, but don't you already have tenzo R seats?

Rep Power: 0 well the S2000 seats are really nice, but no one has attempted to put them into our cars yet (i dont think, i could be wrong). So you might run into a situation to where they wont work, then you just lost a bunch of money.
On the other hand, putting the RSX seats in are fairly easy from what i hear.
From the looks standpoint, i like the RSX seats a little more...i dont know why, i just do.
Another thing to think about it, how hard to you drive your car, and are you really looking for racing seats. Real racings seats arent leather, you wont find any WRC, NASCAR, F1, LeMans cars with leather in them. You just slide around in them, and that isnt good for really hard driving. So, if you are like me, then you drive really hard, and leather just wont cut it.
If you dont drive like me, get the RSX seats, and save yourself a possible major headache from putting them in

Rep Power: 351 already did some checking and they willl fit this car with some modification. I sat in both the S and the RSX and i like the way the S seats hug you more. As far as the quality they both are very good. I think that the S seats are more unique overall in both looks and occurance so that was never an issue with me. Just thought i would run it by a few members here and get an idea. Thanks for the replies and the honesty

Rep Power: 351 I am installing the S2000 seats next week i sat in them today and they hugg you so much better than the RSX seats i sat in last night. The leather in the RSX and the S are pretty much the same.

Rep Power: 0 Man, when I saw the subject of this thread, I had the wrong idea of what it was.
Cool, S2000 seats would be rather unique to have in a Civic. They hug you like they want you to hug them back (intimate moment)...anyways, I would love to see that Zach.

Rep Power: 379 s2000 seats are cool, they are bucket seats with not that much cushion. do they recline so people can get in the back?
i would rather getg the rsx black leather seats, but the s2000 are for people that drive a little bit sportier...

Rep Power: 0 Do the S2000 seats even recline? If they don't, forget it.
The RSX seats are okay - IMO, better than the EP3s because the EP3 seats aren't designed to keep you held in the seat if you're hitting hard turns.
With that being said, I'd get the RSX seats out of the three.
