96-00 Civic to GSR Rear Seat Conversion?
Hey, I've heard from a few people that the conversion is possible with fairly 'minimal' modification. I know that the clips to close the seats are on the sides instead of at the top like the civics, and I'm guessing that the 40/60 back 'hinge' where the two portions attach will have to be moved to the center to accomodate the 50/50 of the GSR. (sorry if my terms don't make much sense, it's late and my brain isn't quite working)

Does anyone know if any other modifications have to be made?
Is the conversion even possible? Am I misinformed?

Thanks for any help.

I'll probably end up buying the seats anyway and taking a shot at it... I'll post a DIY if and when I do. I think there was a forum like this around this time last year and it got no replies.... we shall see......

i really dislike the gap between the seats after the swap. the seats themselves look pimp..but just not how they bolt into the car.

I heard that four door Integra seats will fit 'almost' perfect into a 96-00 coupe. Never done it so dont know many details but I try to help :-)
