Hey i just bought a 88 civic from an old lady for 800 bucks. Ive had 2 crx's and they had way more leg room than this dx so i want to know is there a way i can put new rails on the seats to make them slide back farther as no ones sitting in the back seat i want to be able to push it back far as i can also what seats from other hondas will fit in this car im 6 foot five and a big guy so i need a lage comfortable seat thanks

 

Just about any seat from any civic crx or integra will fit with little or no midification you will just need to get the rails and brackets for the seats that come with them!!!

Hoped I helped!

So is it the seats and the brackets i have that are the prob as in if i put crx seats and brackets ill be able to go back farther?

 

How far away do you have to be? I'm six foot even, and in any car I drive I have the slider at least halfway up the rails. Any farther back and I feel like I'm to far away from the pedals. :thinking:

 

lol Just do what some these "GHETTO" people here in memphis do....Lean your seat back.....

 

i need a lot of leg room im 6 foot 5 and a big guy so i need as much room as i can get

 

Well, Japanese cars are designed around Japanese people (average height of a Japanese man is only 172 cm, 5'7") so that doesn't help.

How good are you with metal working? The only thing I can think of would be to create a spacer bracket on the bottom of the seat to shift it a few inches to the rear. If headroom becomes a problem, you'd need an aftermarket racing seat (they usually sit an inch or two lower) along with a set of custom rail adapters to push it back.

Otherwise... sorry to say, but you may have to look into getting a different car that can fit your frame size.

 

or u can just sell the car ;-)

 

I'm 6'7" and with the seat all the way back in my CRX I am plenty comfortable.

 

ha haha, hit up that gangster lean.
