    I've got Prelude seats in mine, they have side supports so u don't roll during hard cornering and also adjustable lumbar support.

    i've got prelude seats that bolted right in, i couldnt afford aftermarket seats so i have them. they are sporty feeling! if you want aftermarket seats, i saw some at Pepboy's. the brand is 3A Racing i think. anyway. they are under $200 each in what i think was leather, 2 tone vent leather it looked like. didnt really check them out for what material, but they felt grippy. here's some pix of my prelude seats. they're not the best pix, so i will probley take some more soon. those are old pix. just to give you and idea.


    and yeah thats my work for the interior. red and black.

    i agree with prelude seats. the 3rd gen lude seats are freakishly comfortable i think. so much support for ur whole body. i dunno if a civic SI seats would fit into a 3rd gen, but if they do, u might wanna try it out. i was amazed at those seats when i first test drove my car. however, i think the prelude seats are a bit stiffer in terms of support and would be better.

    If you can find the prelude si seats in the junk yard for $50 for both then more power to you, but you won't find that price anywhere up in the Midwest.

    For some reason they think the stuff is worth a lot. But I sometimes get good deals.

    I have a set of leather seats from an SE-i that I am putting in my 87 LX-i...I am more into comfort and flossing so I am not to concerned about side bolster support...the leather seats that are in the SE-i are more firm than the standard cloth seats i have found.
