Default Del sol seats in 5th gen Accord sedan...

I got a pair of them and am installing them in my 94 EX sedan. They are very comfortable seats and since I am 6' 7" tall they sit lower to the floor than the stock seats which is great for me. The bolster, shoulder and high back support makes it so much more fun to drive also. All I had to do is modify the brackets a bit. I have the drivers side in but havent had time to do the passengers yet. I will post pipcs soon.

Here is a couple of pics of the drivers side that is in. The front right "foot" on the Accord seat had to be drilled out and removed then the same done on the DelSol seat and then put the Accord foot on the DelSol seat with nut and bolt. The left side needed the bracket moved over about 1". This is done by welding a steel plate to the seat frame and bolting the bracket to it. I got these seats for $75.00 for the pair so the small amount of labor is worth it.I am going to have the back seats re-upholstered in the same fabric if I can find it.
