Default TL seats for Accord (I did it, so should you!)

I recently put '00 TL seats in my '99 Accord LX. Three out of four bolts line up and all you need is a drill to modify the fourth bracket. 98coupeV6 got me the wiring diagrams I needed. They work great and are far more comfortable than accord seats.

Interior codes carry through from H to A. If you have a Type F interior there are front and rear seats from a TL on eBay @

They are in Cali so if you are East coast the shipping will be the killer but I got mine for the opening bid. It is the same company I bought mine from (good deal, good comp).

I drive 250-400 miles a day and they are worth four times what I paid.

this is something I'm extremely interested in. CL/TL seats are so plush and soft ... it makes the Accord's feel like bricks.

Will the heater function work, or can it be modded to work?

I put TL seats in my wifes 92 accord sedan. I wired the power seats to her amp power wire. They are so much better than the brick feeling cloth seats.

The seat heaters work. Got wiring diagrams from 98coupeV6. Bought new switches from Acura. Still haven't figured out where to put the switches in the car. Console? Dash? they are kind of large.
