Does anyone has a suggestion on how to raise the seat in an in a 2003 Accord
DX? I have been to several auto parts but nothing even close is available.

Thanks in advance

Perhaps the same set of parts (motor, brackets, switch, etc.) that raise the
seat in the 2003 EX? I havn't compared the seat and underseat designs
between the two models, but I would be surprised if they are different. If
they are the same, retrofit should be relatively easy, although since you
may be forced to buy the parts from a dealer, it could get costly.

I looked at the seat mounting on my '01 Accord and can't see any way
to move the track up nor move the seat higher.
I suggest that if you don't have side air bags, buy seat shirts or
seat covers and install a pillow under the seat cover. That should
allow you to sit higher.
I have side air bags and they are mounted in the seats so I can't
install covers.
