What Seats Will Fit My 1990 Hatch

[packin86]

I have a 1990 civic DX HATCH. I want to upgade to a pair of NEWER HONDA FRONT SETS THATWILL JUST BOLT IN WITH NO MODIFICATION. Can anyone help me?? thanks

[civicHBsi91]

another set of dx seats for the same year.........and if you decide you can do alittle modification i would go for some si or gsr seats

I'd like to know what's compatible as a direct bolt in also.

Anyone?

88-91 civic seats will bolt in. thats it. everyother set of seats requires modifications, but the ones i've found are closest to fitting are 90-93 teg seats. two bolt line right up, one only needs a small spacer, but the rails are the same length. CRX seats, as well as Del Sol seats are about 2 inches too skinny. I havent tried any others, but i know the 96-00 seats have totally different mounting points.. havent tried 92-95 ones..

Yup..the closest are the 90-93 Teg. I have a 91 teg seat in my sedan. I removed the front mount piece from the Civic rail and bolted it to the Teg rail. However, the teg seats have the seatbelt roll for the auto belts like Civic 4-doors, so for me that worked great. I've been too lazy to do the other seat..and will prolly save it til I swap the engine and do all that stuff at once.

But you'll have to do modifications to just about ANY other seat than what came in your car - I even think there are differences between 88-89 and 90-91's

If you are interested, here is a link to my Teg seat install so you can see what I did. But again, I got lucky cuz the rails and all lined up, I just had to swap the brackets from the Civic to the Teg rails to make them line up.

I still wanna get teg seats for my car ... I cant think of anything else that will work good with the auto seatbelts.

90 Si or CRX seats.. Everything else is different.. Each year for 4th gen Civics is different.. Why? Who knows.. Then in 92+ they started to make most all parts compatable.

92-95 seats require quite a bit of work, but I did it.

Maybe i am misunderstanding you but it sounds like you are saying that CRX seats will fit in a hatch. They dont. I've tried 91 CRX Si seats, 90 CRX DX seats, and 88 CRX HF seats and none fit in the hatch. they are all too skinny.

88-91 civic seats will bolt in


that is not true, 88 and 89 seats will not bolt right in, they dont fit, 90 and 91 seats will fit the car, and dx and SI seats will bolt right in.
