7th gen seat compatibility?

Feel free to move this if i posted in the wrong spot. I'm sick and tired of these damn oem EM2 seats, they suck! Besides the RSX and del sol seat swaps, has anybody had any success with aftermarket seats? Looking for something that sits relatively similar to oem but more comfort and support. Hoping you guys could share which seats fit well, i have a '01 EM2 coupe. Any suggestions, brands, etc much appreciated!

The RSX and EP3 seats are the popular ones, can confirm they’re comfy (from sitting in both). I actually found my stock seats really comfortable so can’t say for certain if you’ll prefer the other ones to it.

I ran Sparcos in my 2002 with zero problems. Super comfy, but definitely racing seats.

Like @Chezboat24 mentioned, DC5 RSX and EP3 (02-05 civic si hatch) were popular choices. 3 of the 4 bolt holes line up, but slight modification can be done to make the 4th line up. You just have to bore the hole out a bit. I forgot how much you have to bore out, but it's not much

I put Acura rl leather seats in my 05 civic, minor adjustments but I didn’t need the power or heat.

I have the same question. Got the original cloth seats in my 03 civic but they are getting worn. Where have you found compatible replacement seats?
