Default Recaro style seats

I am looking for some new seats for my 94 Civic coupe, I was checking out used del sols but came across these:


They are called R1 style (Recaro SRD replicas). Anyone have them on their car? They come with universal sliders, anyone know how "universal" they are, will I still need to swap my old rails? They are about the same price as used del sols and they don't say Tenzo-R so it is tempting...

Comfortness? Is that a word? I think they also spelled it "responsivenss."

Anyways, it doesn't look too comfortnessed, but I'm sure it's a helluva lot more comfortable than my del sol seats. Anyone wanna trade me for some GSR or TypeR's and cash?

"Recaro-Style" :eh:

h:

These are the dimensions of the REAL deal



With The Recaro SRD's aggressive, sport design and integrated headrest and belt guides, you can use it on the track or on the street. Its close affinity with our professional racing shells is RECARO's way to synthesize sportiness and comfort. The Recaro SRD is often imitated but NEVER duplicated.

You don't like your del sols seats? Another reason I am looking for new ones is because my back starts to hurt on long drives and I was thinking lower seating sporty seats like the del sols might help...

Hey MaxBoost, how much did you pay for your recaros? How do they compare to other seats (del sols/sparco/whatever)

My seats are old and hard. I switched the bottom part with the passenger seat and it was much better for a while, but I either got used to it, or it got flattened like the drivers side.
