    IIRC the 90-93 seats are a lot flatter than 86-89. So that might be a downgrade, apart from the armrest.

    Re: Mark's LX-I build thread

    One day im gonna modify a 3g seat and installl a 2002 Volvo S40 armest into mine. Stock seat with armrest

    Sounds like some plans Mark. Any performance mods you have in mind?

    And do you have any mods already done to your car? fill us in you were very vague on your first thread post.

    By the way man I have the Valve Cover ready if you still want it. I cold not possibly do white stripes and white letters without making it look like crap though. so they are silver.

    Re: Mark's LX-I build thread

    Well of course there better in confort but i dont think any one would want to put bigger pellow seats in a 3g. As it is i hated siding around when i was turning...now with lude seats i adjust the bloasters and i dont even move PLUS it gives the 3g look smooth in the interior. But if he wants a low low style seat then he gots em.

    BUT with out pics i cant judge but i can see the outcome already.

    Re: Mark's LX-I build thread

    hey rendon i take that back man the prelude seats are f-ing sweet and what year are your seats? thinking of getting the 95 prelude seats

    i found these seats they look ok and only black or grey seats in my car and what would be a good idea for a rear seat swap?

    Re: Mark's LX-I build thread

    mark i think he meant 3rg gen prelude seats.

    but the seats youre saying probably will not bolt up and will require lots of fabrication.

    if you could get some type r seats they would look sick but probably lots of fabricating again.

    and no pics yet sorry i was busy today trying to get the water pump off my integra but ill take some pics in a little bit ill just try and get some good lighting. ill get some pics of the couple flaws. (that paint is freaking hard to work with because it runs very easily)

    Re: Mark's LX-I build thread

    na not noticeable. its on the opposite side of the VC so in other words it on the intake manifold side not the exhaust manifold side

    I don't want to sound offensive or anything, but those seats look identical to me.
