How are you enjoying your seats? have you moved on to after market? did you mod it? Please let us know which Gen you have when you post also

discuss.

 

2nd day of ownership installed my Bride ZetaIIIs into my GE8. Don't really enjoy other seats after sitting in the ZetaIIIs. The stock seats felt way too truck like for me, the positioning and also the fact that they are far from sport oriented in my opinion, but my previous Hondas were more sport than the RS.

 

I've driven 500+ miles a couple of times and have no complaints.

 

I've done a few 5.5 hour trips with no issues. Wife & son are comfy too but my son has his graco nautilus with cup holder

I'm 5' 9.5" with 30' inseam... so about average height for US. My wife is 5'8

I'm 5'8" and 180 lb, medium build.

On my GD1 I drove with the stock seats for about 2 years. In city driving they're okay and decently comfortable, but on long drives past 4 hours (or really nasty traffic jams), the lack of thigh and knee support becomes pretty obvious. I can live without lumbar support, but no thigh and knee support on a manual-transmission car is a cause of strain that shouldn't exist.

DIY-replaced them with Recaro SRDs on BRIDE RO-type rails. Huge improvement - I have no problem spending long drives in the car now. Fixed lumbar support was a welcome bonus.

The only real issue is getting used to the 1"-lower hip height of the seat, which took me a few weeks.

 

need to be lower, more hip holster,

 

I have 3500 miles on my car and have taken a 12+ hour road trip twice. The seats are absolutely fine for me. I'm 6'0 and and weigh 190 of solid muscle.

 

Drove from LA to San Fran twice, seats are fine. 5'11" weigh 200 of solid fat

 

seats arent terrible but the pedals are too close.

 

drove from torrance to mammoth ~320 miles in the fit. no discomfort besides the super vertical dead pedal. im 6'1 and big build.

 

Mine are ok, but would be better if they had heat massage.

 

I absolutely hate my seats and think they are too soft and have the position of bus bench with pedals bing too close and my knees hitting dash while to heel toe. GD3 ps 5'11''

 

My body is a tight 19.7 BMI to 20.6 or no flab to shield me from the torture throne. The seat is fine for short cruises but absolutely the worst for longer rides. The bean counters @ Honda, obviously cut costs with the Fit's seat. Even my CRX's seat was more comfortable than the Fit's

 

I rate them 0,5/10.
The only car where I prefere to ride on the back seats.

 

My seats are as comfortable as some if not most aftermarkets brands.

If I were to change them it would be for pure aesthetics only.

 

You appear to know everything regarding car seats manufactured throughout the world for at least the last couple of decades, including owner satisfaction ratings which must be fairly difficult to come by. Amazing stuff!

So how the f*$k did you end up buying car with the worst seats ever made?

(I've been looking for an ignore button but can't find it... can anyone help me?) Aha! User CP>Settings and Options>Edit Ignore List

 

Thanks for your opinion on "my" opinion. That's good stuff!!!

 

I didn't say they are the worst, but not so far. It's still the best car in it's class, that's why I made my mom buy it (so it's not mine, but I use it sometimes).

 

with my 08 CRV... feeling more tired and beaten with low back pains, thanks to the so called "lumbar support" on the crv seats.

with the FIT... no complaints like that of the CRV experience.

 

I've driven back home to Detroit from Chicago 4x's, about to be 5x's when I get out of work today and I can honestly say they are VERY comfortable. Those who've swapped out to racing seats, cool, I bet they look good and some are even comfortable, any pics of that to the GE
