Will GSR rear seats fit???
I just bought a mint set of GSR leathers for my 00 EK hatchback. I put the front leathers in with 3 bolts and they look great. But i wanna try to install the rear seats will this work?
i've heard it will and it won't but i dunno.
Anyone have pictures of integra rears in a ek hatch??

It is completely unsafe and ghetto to put seats in with three bolts. All you have to do is swap the inner-rail... A guy on here posted recently that his buddy got into an accident and got seriously hurt because of his seat not being bolted down properly. If all of the bolts don't line up then it doesn't fit...
The rears depend are they out of a GSR coupe or sedan?

i did alot of searching on here the last bit and found out my best bet is 4dr bottom cushion and i guess a 2 dr top cushion which i don't have. I wish i could just fit the leather skins on my stock ek hatch rear seats and i'd be money but i'd probably tear something up.
I'm gonna try to just put in the GSR coupe rear leathers in and hopefully i can make it functional i can try to fix the gaps later i just want them to be safe for a backseat rider.

Even with the gaps it should be safe to ride someone in the back. But for the fronts even if it feels tight it probably won't hold up in the event of a collision. I'm just trying to look out for other Honda guys...

the little amount of time it would take to swap the rails from the ek fronts to the gsr's would be worth the piece of mind knowing it was done right. done it myself, its not that bad

I put Integra seats in my car. All you have to do is swap out the inside rails from the EK seats and the integra seats. Here's the link to the DIY that I used. Remember, you only need to swap the inside rails. I made the mistake of trying to do both and then having to backtrack.

Unfortunately, I cannot help with the rear seats, I know nothing about Integra rears in an EK. Hope the link helps.
Edit: Went back and read your post about selling the original seats. Just go find either a junked EK (to grab the rails from) or some EK rails on Craigslist or Ebay to get the seats to fit in just right. Please, do not chance anything such as this. You do not want to find out the consequences if you hit something head on and the seats are not properly bolted down.

Here's just the thing you need (regarding EK's at least)

It can be done, I have never done it myself though. EM2 seats are nice!
