Complete fitting kit: side mounts included. These frames come with their own side mounts, so any side mount bucket seat bolts straight to them. You only need the seat and the frame, with no separate side mounts to buy.
This listing is for a matched pair of M2 Motorsport direct fit sub-frames for the Honda Civic EP3 and EP2, one driver-side and one passenger-side in a single purchase. Part number M2-20273-S000, the same physical frame as the individual listing, bought as a set for a full front seat installation.
The EP3 Type R (K20A2, 200bhp, 8400rpm) is the reason most people buy this frame. The EP2 standard hatch of the same 2001 to 2005 generation shares the floor mounting and is also covered.
For the full specification and vehicle-specific notes, see: M2 Honda Civic EP3 / EP2 Direct Fit Sub-frames.

If you want to confirm fitment for your specific car before ordering, call us or use the contact page and we will confirm fitment and give you the current lead time before you order.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Honda Civic EP2, Honda Civic EP3. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on M2 frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
Can I fit a Recaro road seat such as the Sportster CS or Speed to these M2 rails?
No. M2 Motorsport rails are made for side mounted seats, such as the Recaro Pole Position. Recaro road seats like the Sportster CS and Speed are not compatible and we do not recommend them on these rails.
