Default Seat Replacements

I have a 97 Civic EX Sedan. I HATE the front seats. They are very uncomfortable.
Does anybody know of other seats that are a direct bolt-in replacement that are more comfortable.

Will 2000 Civic seats fit in my car and are they more comfortable?

Thanks

2000's should be of the same "grade" of seat........ You can go all over the place with honda's, you can get del sol's, you can get preludes, you can get integras or integra type R's, you can get S2000's, you can get EP3's (02-05 civic's) or RSX seats...... Most of the seats will mostly be bolt up, but like the S2000's you have to swap the seat pan that has the rails connected to it from your old seats to the S2000's (they are exactly the same shape, size and have the same bolt placements for the recliner option but have the rails in a different position).......

On comfort it's personal opinon, alot of people will got with del sol's because they hold you better but some will say they are less comfortable. I've read that people who are taller or have lower lumbar support needs that the prelude seats are great for that, and then again alot of people say the S2000 seats are wonderful but it's a bit of work to swap the pans BUT it means you don't have to custom fabricate any mounts..... Easiest way to find out for sure would be to hit stealerships and used lots that have honda's and sit in some of them, see how they hold you in the sea and if you feel comfortable in um.

Definatelyappreciate all of the suggestions but does anybody which seats would be a direct bolt-in replacement.
Replacing these seats is my last resort before I sell this car and buy a Camry.

I just scored a pair of front seats from a 2000 Integra GSR for $250 shipped.
Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=180152945825

They are grey so they should match my Grey interior.

They have the adjustable lumbar support and two additional adjustment ***** on the side of the seat.

I spoke the the guy on the phone and he guarantees a direct bolt-in to my 97 Civic EX.

I am excited. I hope they give me the comfort I am looking for.
