Rep Power: 0 can u still fold the seats down? and it seems like ur missing seat belts, do the seatbelts have to be taken out? i think leather would have been worth the swap but its nicer than the stock seats. gj.
woops didnt' read about the pulling the seatbelt through.

Rep Power: 241 i didnt want to follow everbody's footsteps and get the leather seats, its like everyone and their mother has leathers in their 7thgen..plus the deal for these was not to miss..got everything for $250, yea the seats do sit a little bit lower, but you can't notice unless you point it out. The seats loose their fold down ability, it would take some welding and lots of customization for the seats to keep their folding capability because our stock seats have the lock on top of the seat while the RSX has them on the side plus your stockers are 60/40 ratio while RSX is 50/50. The seats are out of an 02' RSX that was crashed, had to replace the seat belt buckle tensioners from the front seats so my SRS light would not stay on.

Rep Power: 273 I have the DC5 black suede rear seats in mine. Yes you can still keep the fold up and down ability but you have to be very carefull when you Cut them down to fit. I have mine cut so close to the sides that you have to close them at the same time and they fit so tight they wont fall down on you even though they dont lock in. I'll try to post pics up when I get home.

Rep Power: 227 Looks good bro. Don't think I could get seats that didn't fold down. If you ever need to fold them down for something, sucks. Stock rear seats ftw! Those do look sexy though with your fronts.

oh snaps! since you brought up the seat belt buckle tensioners thingy, it could be the reason why my srs is light on.. but still doesnt make any sense lol, is that the strap? or the seatbelt buckle catch clip or watever you call it.
and as for everyone having rsx leather, to be honest.. i dont see alot of people having them.. except me which one of the reason why i went for 05rsx seats leather cause thats is something different than everyone else.. i believe iam one of the first one here that had it.

Rep Power: 241 If your SRS light was not on before you swapped out your seats, and now it is on when you put your seats in...im 1000% positive it is the seat belt buckle tensioner, because thats all that is being changed of the SRS system when you swap seats

Rep Power: 0 jay, u don't need to replace those airbags, as i told you before, they are not there before and ur srs will not be looking for it. and btw, they have a different plug for that side airbag... but about the seat belt tensioner... that could be a possibility.

Rep Power: 241 side airbags do not matter because they do not hook up, the connectors you have under your seat are the yellow one which is your SRS connector and the grey one is the seat belt indicator light on the guagewhich both connect to the seat belt buckle..just replace your seat belt buckle unit with your stock ones from the 7thgen, do the reset and your golden given that your 7thgen ones are in good shape

Friday night, i disconnected my battery, took out my stock passenger seat, and installed the passenger rsx seat, using the rsx belt buckle. Reconnected the battery, turn the car on, and the SRS light DID NOT come on.
I drove all day long saturday, the srs light never came on.
Saturday afternoon/evening i did the same exact process on the drivers seat. The srs light came on!
So why did it come on with the drivers seat installed and not the passengers seat?

as what he said early (or wrote) that if the seats you got from was in an accident, then its good game. so it might be that your driver seat has blown airbag before and they just replaced it to a new one. meaning if you have blown airbag... then the tensioner is out also. (on time use for accident lol) how is it coming along btw?

Oh and the seats didnt come from a car in a wreck. The guy i got them from took them out of his car bc he got Recaros. So yeah im still confused..
