Hey guys
I'm sick of the standard seats in my accord and want something abit more buckety, not full blown racing seats or anything, i was thinking about Integra seats Type R or not, would they fit ? Im after just the cloth seats, not leather maybe WRX ones ?
Any help is muchly appreciated.
Edit: These ones would be perfect out of a 2001 Honda Integra Type R

Someone in the USA done the seat swap for her accord. It will fit after the seat rail is modified to fit the accord mounting position. I'll see if i can find the pic
i know what you mean mate they are not very huggy.. i have just bought a set of prelude jdm electric 4th gen seats to put in my accord... i will find out what needs modding 2moro.
Ah, ok cool
I have no problems with modifying the brackets etc to fit the seats i just about have every tool under the sun so it shouldn't prove a problem, but it may just be abit more appealing for it to fit in straight up or with very slight modifications.
Just so if i wanted to sell the car later on etc.
sorry i dont have actual pictures of these seat close up
my 1st accord with recaros lol

was there alot of alteration to fit the recaros Spoon Accord?
i got some universal rails, and i just relocated the brackets,
i couldnt use any mounts from the stock accord seats cause it was put together very strong,
so yeh, recomendation is to get custom rails or universal ones from autobarn or repco, then modify them, takes about 1 hours each to get ther sitting straight and perfect :)
Hey SpoonAccord, Nice ride :D
Im trying to get the stock 15's for it, good ones anyhow its hard to get a decent set !
I was considering an airbag setup for mine, but changed my mind and getting some Tein superstreets in the next few months with other little modifications.
BUT! on topic now, so autobahn do the custom rails for these seats ?
I'll go in this weekend and ask about, Thanks heaps :D
lol, my black accord had mint wheels, basically factory mint
not once scratch, i used car polish on them and washed them frequently
then when i got my second accord, i switched the crap ones with the good :)
autobarn sell universal rails, try finding a set of them, then customising them :)
Yeah, unfortunately, i'll have to get it all engineered too !
But, im just thinking is it really worth it in the long run, apparentally its 3 demerit points and some 300 fine because its considered driving without a seatbelt or something.
This is the pic of a dc5 seat in the accord. You can see the accord and the integra seat fitted in the car

Engineering is going to cost less than $300. Those universal rails still need a fair amount of modification (welding) to get them to fit. And depending on what seat you are putting in you may need to get a seperate seat belt anchor attached to the floor instead of the seat (like the stock ones do).
I reackon get a bracket from ebay usa that will bolt in and take it to an engineer. Ask them if it would pass engineering. If not get it strengthened. I think it would still be a better starting point than the universal ones.
