It is if the Side Airbags work.. Can you wire them up somehow?

How's the color match?
They look Greyish; a bit darker than our Tan, which is kinda White/Cream almost.
You might need to dye either the RSX Seats, or the rest of the SC Interior, to match the other.

I heard Honda S2000 seats swap right into the SC also.
I was thinkin' of gettin' me a pair o' those.

Was going to say that its been done a while back with GREAT looking results!

I think it will look good when u color match the rest of the interior. I'd prolly match the interior to the newer seats. Will be easier to get a good color match.

G'luck and thanks for keepin it real.

Dont wire them up, totally dangerous lol.

S2K seats do not bolt in, it was a myth. They are REALLY tall seats, I am pretty sure they would be hitting everything in sight.

hey krazeimatik helo me with the seats but heres his instructions


hey whats sup?

as for the seats i didnt do any custom rails the seat does line up in at a certain area, you might have to fine it... the rsx seat in the fronts are like a 90 degrees angle that goes over the front bump of original seat then what i did is use a step bit and drill threw the hole font of the bump then the back make a small one and stick a big bolt to it and a screw behind it.. then as for the back i use a self tap screws and screw it to the bottom of the floor..

Yeah.. self tapping screws dont sound too safe for a 200lbs person + weight of the seat... and with the forces of driving.

Why would ANYONE question me about wiring up side airbags in a car that does not have them standard?
