STi8 seats in to WRX
Guessing the dash will light up with an error code due to no side airbags?
I'm sure there's a way round this- anyone know what it is?
Thanks,

Nope..
Sti 8 seats go straight into the bugeye WRX
Just don't remove the front seats through the front doors. !!!!!!
Take out the rears first and then lie the fronts down and take them out the rear doors. There are some sharp bits of metal on the seats so its a two man job.
Just keep the metal bits of the front seats away from the paint around the rear arches !! go faster stripes went out with the Austin Allegro !!
If you have bought the door cards remember to swap the old rubber bits around the windows if the new ones are missing. Also if removing the door cards in the front detatching the surround to the door opening thing (the word has gone) is an art in itself. Use fingers only and start underneath !!
Hope this helps

You will need 2 (1 for drivers seat and 1 for the passenger seat) 3R3 (3.3ohm) resitors, bend the legs around and plug one into each of the the unused sockets and tape it all up. It cost me all of 63p, and i bought some fancy ceramic resitors as they didn't have the 17p ones in stock at maplins
