yah i really want to have the rear seats to match the front seats. idk what i'll do if i can't get them to fit. i've already got my system set up so thats not an option.

he sent me a picture he had a while ago. the picture DOES NOT do the seats justice. i know this because i already went and checked out the seats. they are 100% mint and i'm anal when it comes to interior cleaning. and the pattern on the center is NOT visible most of the time. it only reflects light (aka the flash on the camera!!)



on monday i'm gonna meet up with him again, and test fit the rear seats to try and see what kind of work would have to be done.. if at all possible. and since my rear seats are pulled out anyways it will be nice and easy.

an update:

bottom cushion uses all the same mounting techniques as my stock seats. they are just in slightly different locations. so i'd have to cut and move those. and there is about a 1 1/2" gap on the sides(between the end of the seat and the interior plastic panel.) not really that noticable tho.

HOWEVER... the back peices are gonna take some pretty serious modification. to be able to even fit together in place approx. 6" needs to be removed. theres a few ways to do this. i think the simplest would be to cut it all outa one seat on the section in the middle. and make them like a 60/40 set instead of 50/50 how they are now. i didn't check mounting the brackets yet. so idk about those yet. i'll be sure to do a WELL written walk through and i'll keep you guys updated as i progress.

wish me luck!!

p.s.- i'm pickin up the seats on wednesday. i bought the full set(f and r) for $260 and its even had a microseal treatment that garuntee's they wont' stain or fade for 6 years

If you really care enough i'm sure you can make it work, but why don't you take that 300 bucks and go find some GSR interior that will for sure fit and be leather? I personally hate cloth and i guess i'm too lazy to fabricate stuff, i like factory bolt in parts.

well the thing with the seat cloth , is that feel nothing like the cloth on my stock seats. the cloth on the rsx seats is like a synthetic suede almost. its so soft, and you can leave your hand print in it.

anyways i should be picking the seats up today after work!! i can't wait!!

i'll post some pics,
