Type S seats in a S2000

NEIGHBORHOOD LEGENDS · 11-11-2008, 10:37 PM

o.k I had my seats stolen and I came across a real good deal on some rsx type S seats. anyone know how these might fit?

RL1924 · 11-11-2008, 10:53 PM

Hm... They look pretty close to the S size maybe ask what the width is i would think that would be the only issue and I can check mine

SilverS2K422 · 11-12-2008, 12:32 AM

wow those look real close to the S2k seats, prolly the same size. looks like the seat bottoms are a little more flat than ours

No clue, but can I just say here how much it sucks that your seats were stolen? Damn, humans just keep disappointing me.

I only figure with the whole Acura/Honda name they "Just might be interchangeable"

They look pretty simailar in size to the s2k seats. I ahve always loved the look of the type s seats.

The mounting points for the seat track are probably different. On the S both seats have different seat tracks due to the differences in the floor. So what chance do you think seats even from another Honda will fit? You should go to your insurance co. first. Then look at Ebay or Craig's List, you might even be able to buy your original seats back from the thief.

You would need to get s2k seat rails and then they would fit.

Any chance you could measure one edge of the seat to the other for me? just to make sure my doors will actually close, thanks

RL1924 · 11-12-2008, 03:34 PM

RL1924 · 11-12-2008, 03:35 PM

I noticed a little plug under my drivers seat, what would that plug into under the seat????And how would this effect it if i go with the type S seats? Anyone know what that plug does?

desmo4 · 11-13-2008, 10:06 AM

The plug is for the seat belt tensioner which detonates when the air bag goes off. If it is not plugged you will have an SRS warning light on the dash.

I think I would rather build seats out of cardboard than buy my belongings back from a thief. I hope u were kidding

desmo4 · 11-13-2008, 10:31 AM

No I was alluding to buying replacements on Ebay or Craig's List. Pretty much any seat on either of those forums is probably stolen. Won't your insurance co. cover the loss. The only down side is the seats are so expensive they might want to total the car. If you have the choice I would go with Sparco or Recaro as long as your plus 1 is ammeanable. The side benifit is you will save about 70 lbs over the stock seats.

They got your steering wheel too? That is an expensive dealer only item unless you go with aftermarket and loose the airbag. As to the top I would recommend GAAH, it is better quality than oem a couple hundred dollars cheaper and mine has about 7 years on it and still looks new with no special treatment.

Check www.hondaautomotiveparts.com The steering wheel discounted is over $1000.

no luck with the seats, they make me sit too tall

desmo4 · 11-14-2008, 10:31 AM

Check Science of Speed, they have seat rails and seats which will fit.

So they actually fit they just sit up too high? Might be a good mod for short people with S2k's

There are only two plugs that would be under the drivers seat... One of them only if you have a factory alarm... It is most like the seat belt warning...
