Seat for big dudes
So I just got a 2005 Accord LX from a family member and it is a great deal but after sitting in it for a while I have come to realize it is a REALLY uncomfortable driver seat. (I am 6'4" 250. Never been a problem in my 94 Accord, which was just totaled) Which is a problem, as I commute about 20 minutes a day. I thought about swapping out this seat for a racing seat but I don't know if those would be any bigger. Any suggestions for a solution?

Racing seats are tight they're mad to make sure when the cars whipping around the driver doesn't move so if you're looking for comfort that's probably not your best option. I would take some measurements and see what you can fit in there and maybe pull a seat from another car if you can make the brackets from the stock seats fit on them |
Welcome to the forum, David
Perhaps you've answered your own question when you stated, "Never been a problem in my 94 Accord".... Check out some 'pay & pull' sites for a driver's seat from a 5th generation ('94-'97) Accord. The only issue may be that some modification could be required to install it in a 2004. As with other features, the seats from generation to generation change; for instance: I found the seat in the 8th generation to be uncomfortable for long drives, while the seat in a 9th generation is comfortable |
