Default Question about seats and the covers

i have a question.

i have a my98 and the interior looks a bit shabby (all the bolsters are ok) so i purchased a newage black wrx interior which fits perfectly and looks really good with my flocking.

obviously you sit a bit higher in the front seats which is not so bad, the thing i have found is the newer seats don't hug you as much .

i have been thinking about removing the covers from the newage interior and putting them over my older my98 seats. my question is will they fit ? i know they will go over but will they be tight like they are on the newage ones.

has anyone tried this ? any help/thoughts appriciated

These recliners are very yum yum - not too narrow neither...

No, I know that's ultimately not what you were asking but you did also ask for "thoughts" - and it's not exactly a tenuous one, is it? After all, they're martching black, and have decent bolsters, look great (albeit not retaining an OEM pattina), etc...
