Si seats in a EX sedan?

would the si seats (from an FA5) fit an ex sedan with the same rails and brackets? i don't want to go through the process of custom fabrication and getting new rails and etc.

i'm planning on getting a whole interior swap cause i'm sick of my tan interior.

does any one have personal experience with this?

It would all fit. Sounds expensive, hopefully the swap is legit seeing you're only 17.

wouldnt it be cheaper to just save that money and use it as a don payment and trade for an Si? A neighbor of mine wanted to to an interior swap but too but said it was too pricey

^idk, he just said it was too pricey. But for the money and cost of install, i would think its cheaper to just trade. especially no because a used FA5 wouldnt be too expensive

Heres some real info for you bud. They do fit, i have them in my sedan. But you can only use the drivers seat. If you put in the passenger seat, it will set off the weight sensor SRS light, and it wont go off until you put the original seat back in.
But if you get SI seats from a coupe, and put it in a coupe, or a sedan SI to sedan civic, it should be fine.
