Edges/corners don't look that great but look comfy.

Nice looking seats. Have a chance to sit in then for a good while yet?

The color doesn't match anything in the interior, plus for daily use, the side bolster will get worn out very quickly on the drivers side.


They are nice seats though, have sat in many Recaro's and love them.

for brackets, I used the original Honda type r brackets that came with the seats. I modified the brackets to fit in the tc2. yes I have an air bag light on, but it is worth it..

also, yes the seats are not mint.., but they are 10+ year old seats, what'd you expect? I am comfortable with them. the sides will wear quick for daily use, but I'm ok with that. these seats are out of a jdm type r integra, my passenger may be a bit worn, but my driver is nearly mint! ;)

one last thing, what do you mean they don't match anything in the car? the interior is 90% black..! they also look great on the cement from outside.

What I mean by they don't match is that everything in the interior is black, and then you have red seats. Doesn't really flow IMO. If you had some accents for example red stitching somewhere or something like that it would be better.

As long as he likes them it is his car. I think it looks good. They pop out at you, like bam!

His seat belt release button is red, I think that counts. Plus, his E-brakes are up, so he has some red on his gauges too. ;) Post some pictures from the outside of the car, I want to see how they look.

**I'm not trying to troll, I think they look pretty neat **

Is it just me or the driver seat should have been install on the passenger side? Due to the fold down knuckle from the pic?

Good looking install..I want the same, stock seat sucks IMO
