Front bucket Seat interchangability

The frame on the drivers seat on my 82 3 door hatch has broken and it's not repairable. Can somebody tell me the generations of seats that I can swap into mine? I've heard you can swap the tracks/pan quite easily. The option I'd like would be to just swap in some 3rd or 4th gen seats because they are abbundant in the junk yards and the 1st and 2nd gens are virtually non-existant.

Thanks for your help!

Pretty much the only seats that bolt right in are the 2nd gen Accords (82-85) and the 2g Preludes (83-87). I'm not even positive about the 2g Preludes bolting in. The 3rd gen and newer seats won't bolt in. You can get 3 bolts in with some clever drilling and spacing, but the 4th one is gonna be tricky.

Got some prelude seats out of an 87 with very little use from the looks of it. They couldn't be a more perfect fit and bolt right in with no modification... pan and everything. Color matches and lumbar support too!

Nice!

Damn! I'm totally jealous!!! The 2g Lude seats are always trashed, and I never see blue ones. Nice find man! That looks awesome!

Man that looks right at home!
