    SE-i seats suck,lol... they are so unsupportive, and uncomfortable. Yes they would work in your car, the fronts only that is, but I wouldn't bother, its a waste of time.

    I had leather seats and lude seats, the lude seats had adjustable lumbar and wrapped around and held you in the seat. The SE-i seats just let you slide all over the place.

    i think their pretty comfortable. they have adjustable lumbar as well. but you slide ALL OVER the place when turning, even at 10-15mph......its ridiculous. and they are a bitch when its hot out. Just get some lude seats.

    Re: Leather Seats?

    I like SE-i leather seats ALOT.

    The stock fabric seats look cheap, the leather seats add a touch of class.

    Here are a few pics of my SE-i leather seats.





    Peace.

    Man ain't that a kick in the nuts. My parents junked my lude so they could get my accord. I wanted to part it out but they were against it. I could have used the seats in my car now.

    Re: Leather Seats?

    I don't think the seats are bad at all. They do have lumbar support, and they aren't slippery *if you clean them and oil them regularly*. Most of them by now are shot, because they haven't been maintained over the years. Also, I took my drivers seat (off because I had to have a few panels replaced to the tune of $500, another prob w/ leather...it's expensive to repair) and wired up the zigzag springs on the seat bottom. It helped a lot, before it was way too springy, and when I got my Bilstein/Eibachs put on it was almost comical. Now it's ok.

    Also, the first thing that people who don't know G3's notice about my car is the leather. Everything else just...isn't.

    I have leather on my frankenstein 86 dx-89 lxi seats,it's not too bad. I don't have problems with sliding around,probably because it takes a can opener to get me out of the car.
