I was curious if there is a more comfortable seat I could get for my accord. I'm 6'1" and anytime I drive for an hour or more I get lower back pain.

Swap in the seats from the Acura CL or RSX. The CL's are almost a direct swap, and I think the RSX ones just require new rails. Pretty sure both are more comfortable than the stock Accord one, the CL's look a bit more plush than the RSX's.

I use to have the same problem, until I adjusted the lumbar support. If you have that, it helps. But if I could I’d swap in CL-S seats, also for the bolsters.

If you go with RSX seats, I’ve heard the 06 seats are the most comfortable, and that the preceding ones aren’t as much.

@redryder Idk how to adjust that, I just tried moving the seat and tilting it, is the lumbar adjustment the one that makes the seat go up and down? I may look at some acura cl seats then. Anyone know if aftermarket racing seats would be more comfy? Thanks again everyone for all the info

It's all about adjusting the lumbar support if you have it. I let my wife drive my car and afterwards I couldn't get comfortable. It took me a week to figure out that she had messed with the lumbar support.

Yeah I feel like an idiot, I just adjusted the lumbar support and it feels a lot better. I had the seat down too low. It all makes sense now lol

Acura seats are one of the best and it also avoids the pain pain problem.
