most comfortable long distance seats

[cb9love]

I'm trying too get ideas for more comfortable front seats with long distance driving in mind. (200+miles) I've found that the accord front seats are rather uncomfortable after 150 miles or so. I've already tried upgrading to accord seats with lumbar support but the bottom of the seat doesn't have enough cushion. I'm thinking of using 97 front prelude seats. I'm not sure how comfortable these are over long distances. Does anyone have an opinion on prelude seats for comfort. Whats other members experiences with front seat swaps. Who believes they have the best fitting most comfortable seat swap for the accord.

If you're willing to fab custom mounts and rails, any seat can be used. How much you want to spend is up to you.

I believe CL seats fit. I don't have any appreciable seat time in them though.

Airplane seats are the most comfortable for the distance traveled.

Seriously though, it's up to the person sitting in it. What I think is comfortable you may think is awful.

On another note, swapping from Accord (family car) seats to Prelude (Honda's sport's car at that time) seats doesn't sound like a better "comfort" option.

Personally, I actually find the stock Accord seats in my coupe are rather comfortable for "long" drives. I've only driven about 150 miles with them though, so there's that.

I have had passengers tell me that the seat is surprisingly comfortable.

I agree with the "family" seat being generally more comfortable than "sporty" seat idea.

Switch to 90's Acura legend seats... One mount has to be changed in the front n the rear backrest material pulled back n frame part has to be cut down on the corners n material clipped back on. I had a whole black leather set in my sedan I had a while back.

Early 80s Toyota Cressida seats.

I drove a Cressida from LA to SF in California. I never once felt uncomfortable or felt like I was sitting on a rock. They are so comfortable. The Cressida was supposed to be Toyota's top of the line luxury car (before Lexus was available). Therefore, the seats have a luxurious amount of cushioning (haha). They are covered in Velour (so soft).

I've got RSX seats in my coupe. They've got adjustable height and lumbar. They have substantially more side bolstering and are pretty comfy. I like how they hug me in corners, but aren't overly soft or mushy. Its a nicely designed seat I think.

I have '03-'07 Accord coupe seats in leather. It's a seat that combines a sporty feel with a lot of comfort.
