Will 5th gen seats fit in a 4th gen? - Honda Prelude Forum

4thGenReady2Go · 06-13-2004, 05:21 PM

... Particularly the rear seats. They look bigger than the 4th gen rears, but I'm just curious. I'd imagine the front ones will fit okay, yes?

No and no, unless you make brackets supposedly.

4th gen > 5th gen seats anyway

4thGenReady2Go · 06-13-2004, 05:40 PM

but are 4th gen seats > 5th gen OEM leather heated seats??

so not even the 5th gen fronts will fit? is it even possible to install the 4th gen brackets onto the bottom of the 5th gen fronts?

You may want to pm Keith - he tried putting 4th gen seats into a 5th gen and couldn't get it to work.

You can get 4th gen heated leather seats from Canaduh too

believe me bud, I'm looking

Yea, i have heated seats, but they aren't leather, I really want to replace my entire interior with leather tho.... like REALLLLLY want to, makes the lude look waaaaaaay more luxrious

4thGenReady2Go · 06-13-2004, 06:44 PM

seriously, I can't stand cloth, it seems to absorb everything, and it's faded.

you know what I want, S2000 leather seats, those look so hot on a prelude. Someone had them in his 4th gen on here, but can't remember who. At first I was thinking about painting my interior black and white, but then decided to keep it black and get leather.

4thGenReady2Go · 06-13-2004, 09:09 PM

Yes, S2000 seats would be AWESOME in a 4th gen... My dad has an '04 S2k with the red carpeting and black and red seats, those are sharp.

Scott95VTEC · 06-13-2004, 10:39 PM

Ludetech on here has S2000 seats in his 5th gen and they look damn good. How about NSX leather seats? There have been a few on ebay lately.

TruNinja619 · 06-13-2004, 11:04 PM

I still stand by my favorites; O2+ civic Si seats

i guess they arent all that supportive, and they arent leather. but they are still BADASS

Honda makes the best seats, seriously

lol Safaa, bite me

Craig, I do like them, and from what I've heard from disgruntled 99-00 Civic Si owners, they're a helluva lot better than the seats that came in the 99-00 Si's. I wonder if those would fit, but since the 5G won't, easily anyway, I doubt the Civic Si seats will.

go to an upholstery shop and they'll put lether for your seats....

but how about using 5th gen brackets with the 5th gen seats????

the only problem i can see is bolting on the brackets...

Grant · 06-15-2004, 12:41 PM

the brackets are not intechangable between seat styles..

well that's always an option, but it's not cheap. I ran a setup through Katzkins and it came to about $1062 for an entire two-tone leather kit with seat heaters, and that was priced for self installation, prof. installed would cost another $499...
