Default got some new seats!

let me just tell you these seats are far from a "bolt in" application.......they are corbeau fx1 pro's. i'll go through the mods needed.......i got the seats with double locking sliders and the corbeau standard brackets that are a "direct bolt in" first thing needed to do was cut the carpet under the seats due to a hump that doesnt allow the brackets to sit flat on the floor. also due to the bar on the rails that unlocks it and allows it to slide i had to trim the carpet under the pass side as well. the seat belt locks wont fit so i had to use civic ones that were straighter up, also i had to put a spacer under the back outside bolt because the seat hit the door. after all that was figured out they fit great, lol. acces to the center compartment is limited to reaching the trunk release and secret compartment, but thats fine cause i dont use it anyway. i also ran the stock belts through the seat holes to save some wear on the seats and look cooler, lol. on to some pics.....











plenty of room for my next mod, roll cage




they feel great and hold you about 500000 times better than the stock crappy leather, lol.

So the seatbelt cuts across your neck? There's NO WAY I'd run a 3-point belt through the shoulder harness hole. I'd reroute that puppy back over the shoulder wing.

nah the belt hole is actually above my shoulders. the seat belt lock sits between the center consol and the seat. this is safer IMO than running it over the seat and it won't wear the fabric on the seats
