If it was the saloon GB270 then I would have thought they would fit, although they won't be easy to fit! What year is your WRX? as the door cards may not fit, but just the leather inserts might.

Was looking at these years ago too and the full interiors, seats front & rear and door card sets were going for £500-£600 a set in general. So I passed.

MIGHT prove a damn sight easier to unbolt seat and work on it inside your home. IF so be sure to lay it on a big dust sheet, blanket or towels unless you have thick pile carpet. Avoid friction burns!

^^^^ Oh god yes.

I'd personally never have considered doing it with the seats fitted in the car! eek. Horrible thought. I'd definitely take the whole interior out and strip the back rests off the main frames on the front seats.

Just a word or warning though, the front seats contain air bags. So go slow and go careful. Don't hammer them and don't disturb anything too much. Wear eye protection and take a video so that we can all laugh if they go off!

Good luck

Oh god, I'm so sorry to see someone has vandalized your car with those stickers. Did you find out who did that and report them to the Police?

Get some KYB Ultra SR shocks for the back of yours. Very good quality and a fraction of the OEM price.

Do a search on this forum.

Great price for the trim, my rear shocks waited to 37k about a month out of warranty before they started knocking, have a full set of GB270 struts and springs 10k on them and alloy wish bones off a late spec d waiting to be fitted and a geo done still to pick up some bigger ARBs.
