Yesterday, I ran across some 2001 Acura CL Leather seats for $100 for the pair. Again, not helping the gas mileage, but the original EG are very uncomfortable, and comfort is important....not as important as mpg's but I need to be able to walk when I get to my destination.

In order to install these, I had to take all of the brackets off the original seats and install them on the CL seats. I started with the passenger side so if I made a mistake it would not be as crucial.

Just an FYI, here are seats you can use in your EG:

92-95 CIVIC:
-Front-
•92-97 Del Sol
•94-01 Integra
•96-00 Civic w/EG rails
•97-01 Prelude w/EG rails
•97-02 Accord Coupe w/EG rails
•01-05 Civic*EM2 Only w/EG rails
•01-03 CL w/EG rails*Requires 12v for heat feature

-Rear-(Coupe/Sedan)
•94-01 Integra Sedan
•96-00 Civic Sedan
-Rear-(Hatch)
•94-01 Integra *Use sedan lower to compensate the gap
•88-91 Civic *Hatchback only
•96-00 Civic *hatchback only

Here it is before I installed it:

Here it after the install:

I'll post pics once I get the driver's side in.
