New seats in my ed civic

[Lee]

I had some seats lying around from a car I had a few years ago so decided to put them into the Civic. I changed the rails on one side to make them fit.
I can now go around corners without worrying about falling out of my seat.

more details on the seats....

Thanks mate. The seats are Recaro. They're factory fitted in my old car, a 1992 Isuzu Piazza.
Was in a nasty accident and I got to keep all the good stuff.
The rails didn't line up with the mounting holes so I had to change one rail for it to fit.
It doesn't look like a bucket seat but the side padding holds me in tight.

Wow, you had a piazza?

Pretty rare car. Don't know much about them, 4cyl with snail right?

Tell me about the piazza you had man....

Mine was n/a 1.8 dohc. Wasn't fast but liked the high revs. I imported a turbo motor (same as Lotus Elan)
for it but didn't get a chance to drop it in.
It had a lot of nice factory options. Recaro interior, full electrics, leather steering wheel, Lotus suspension, BBS wheels.

I'll try and find some pics and post them up.

Those Holden Piazza's are getting hard to find these days.

On the drivers seat I only needed to change one rail which I took from the original seat. It's very easy.
