Early 90's acura integra seats sit very low and actually have the same rail mount hole measurements. Simply put the sliders off the fiat seats, bolt them on the acura seats and install.

Been considering getting seats w/ better lumbar support as I have low back issues as well. Looked for pictures of "early 90's Acura Integra seats" and came across this (not related to seats), shocking picture anyway:

I am using 69 Porsche 911 seats, very low profile. Used 425 Motorsport , "planted" seat brackets, I had removed the original Fiat brackets, probably not the smartest move I made, and used NRG universal sliders.

I ended up with Honda Del-Sol seats. They are a little lower than the Acura seats and also easy to fit.

Anyone have installation photos? I recently picked up a set of Integra (90s?) seats that I may use in my 124 Sedan. The ability for something like these that are affordable for the working man (these were $40/pair in excellent condition) to work in one of the 124 Sports (Coupe or Spider) would be nice.

My first 124 Coupe came with a very ratty set of Procar seats. They were probably Recaro copies with cheap vinyl & I think they (maybe or maybe not the model I had, because they sat slightly too high) were marketed for Fiat 124 Sports....that said, it not likely to find these for sale very often. Mine were structurally & functionally perfect but with completely ratted out vinyl in 1998.

Procar (Scat) seats fit amazing. Stock door panels, stock center consol, etc.

They made a custom back seat for me too!

SCAT Pro-90 seats work too, but they will seat you about 2 inches higher than stock. See post below.
