Default Do V5 folding Rear seats fit into V2 import ?

Just purchased some leather seats for my saloon wrx 1995.

The rear seats fold that i have receieved, Im guessing they are from a UK turbo.

Can i successfully fit UK rear saloon seats that fold into my JDM wrx ?

cheers

There are hooks mounted on the rear bulkhead that the folding seats latch on to. These need to be removed to fit non folding seats into a V5 UK car (I know because I've done the opposite to you and removed my leather and fitted V5 STI seats). Not sure if the threaded mounting holes are in the bulkhead on an import as they're not needed for the non folding seats.

hi bud

yes, ive now seen the Mounting hooks the folding seats latch onto as you say, i havent removed my import seats yet to check if the mounting holes are there, it would be nice to think they are but if not, will drill the holes hopefully and nut and bolt the latches on to get the uk leather interior into my Import

cheers
