Default calling bride seat experts

Hey so my buddy just had a RHD 1995 civic imported into the states. And it had some bride seats in it. The only problem is he's too fat to fit in them. So I offered up the idea of trading my stock S2000 seats straight across for the brides and I just buy rails which I already have lined up. And since the car was imported from Japan I hope that they are real . Just have a couple of Q's
1. of course the first question is are they real?

2. if they are not real is still worth the deal? since my s2000 seats aren't exactly in the best condition...

3. Will they fit in the S2000 without hitting.the door or stopping.the glove box from opening?

my main reason for wanting to swap seats is im 6'4" and if I sit straight up in the stock seats my head hits the soft top. Lol I think there bride zeta 3 sports?

Pics:










Thanks guys,

-Ryan

they look like fake Zeta 2's like these on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pair-2-BRIDE...8bcb0a&vxp=mtr

reason being, Zeta 2's have the squared off headrests as opposed to the rounded headrest of the zeta 3. Also Zeta 2's are the older model that had the older Bride logo stitched in the headrest. your seats have the new logo, just like the ebay Bride Zeta 2's.

without better pics and with these things i mentioned above, i want to say they are fake.

Now that you point that out I see it. Damn, they seemed really sturdy and didnt even flex if you try to rock back and forth like my other friend who has known bride replicas in his civic. Hmmm think they will be safe till I save up and get the recaro pole positions that I really want? is the deal worth it you think? Because S2000 seats are only going for 4-500 in my area...

I don't think Bride ever produced the old Zeta 2 shape seat skin w/ the new logo, so it's probably fake. I wouldn't get fake seats, for safety reasons. also, the resale value for fake seats is very bad. Just look at the ebay link i posted, they are 2 for 350 + 75 shipping. your stock seats are still probably worth more.
