Hey Doug, would you happen to have any pictures, or more detailed instructions on the swap. A clubRSX user wants to trade for my seats, but Im going to have to do the trade in a parking lot half-way between our places

I want to make this as easy as possible for the meet up.

[talonXracer]

I am not sure how that will work out. I got my seats complete with sliders and rails, without any trade involved.

[thechromecoyote]

Well I need:

Type S Seats
Type S seat Sliders/ Rails
EP3 Inner seatbelt assembly
1" aluminum tubing as spacer
dremel to extend the inner rear mounting hole

To swap, I presume he'd take my sliders and rails, and his inner seatbelt assembly correct?

EDIT: Checked out clubrsx.. its a direct swap with the EP3 sliders/ rails, except 1 bolt hole is hard to line up for them.

I guess thats easy, but the part that Im confused on is the Inner Seatbelt assembly swap... how do you do that?

Thanks!

Don't forget your leather outfit to go with the leather seats.

Whats the bolt size and thread pitch of the seat bolts?

I need a slightly longer one for the inner rear and I figgure I can just grab a longer bolt at home depot.

I found this very cool arm rest. It bolts to the typeS leather drivers seat where the lumbar control knob is, and comes in matching black leather.

any more info with the EP3 inner seat belt assembly on the seats? I might be picking up a set in a couple of week. I don't want that guy with the seat belt beeping at me. I always tell it to shut up but he doesn't listen.

I just swap'd the EP3 inner seat belt assemblys onto the typeS seats.

I'm guessing its less complicated than I'm thinking? Like take of plastic piece take 2-3 bolts off take plastic piece off rsx seats take off that assembly and bolt on ours?

Bolt and clips. It's that easy.

Pros:
- Quite a bit comfier.
- They also sit a bit lower and have adjustment for it.
- Excellent lumbar support (adjustable).

A couple cons:
- If you autocross don't even bother. The leather is slick as balls.
- Wipe them down with a leather moisturizer weekly. Otherwise, they dry and crack quickly.
- Hot as hell in the summer and freezing in the winter.
- Careful as to what you have in your pockets. Any small hole will go downhill quickly.
