They are a direct bolt-on. The seats were modified to fit on prelude rails. I had cloth before.. but I believe leather seats (rear) were a factory option on the 5th gens. These S2K seats are not heated, so I'm not too sure what would be involved to have the heating function setup.
Thanks.

Ahh thanks for the info One of the things I've learned to love in my prelude are those damn heated seats. Im sort of looking at the S2k seats after seeing them in your car, but really want to retain the heated seats. The only option I could do is take the factory cloth seats apart, open up the S2k seats, and modify all the stuff to fit. It's a pain though, and likely not worth all the trouble :S

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for those seats/where you got them from? Looking on ol egay there I see a set going for roughly 800...This around what one could expect? or if I held out a little longer do better deals come up?

Yes rear leather seats were a factory option. I've got a friend with a 5th gen that has front/rear leather seats. I always keep my eye out for a set of rear leather seats in a 5th gen.

Oh another thing, what kind of suspension are you on? Im really liking the stance that you've got there, is that a coilover setup? or spring/shock setup?

Is that a factory paint color? It looks a little different from the usual blue ludes I see
