I’m relatively new here so be gentle with me lol, I’ve got a 05 blobeye wrx wagon and I’m looking to upgrade the seats , ideally I’d like a set of leather seats but the sti seats look an upgrade over the wrx seats? My first question is would the bugeye or Hawkeye seats fit straight into my car? I do realise that saloon models won’t be the same rear seats but are the fronts a straight swap? Any advice is welcome. Steve

the front seats are a easy swap from the sti over to the wrx without any problems or modding ,,, the rears however are not so easy ,, you would need to find a set from a wagon sti and these are super rare ,,, I think iv seen a full set of wagon sti seats on Ebay though so might be worth a look there

Just fit Bugeye WRX seats.

Are the bugeye wrx that different from my blobeye wrx seats?

Yes. The Bugeye seats are more like bucket seats, much more supportive with deeper side bolsters. Straight swap but you'll need to fit a resistor for the air bag light.

My previous '03 blobeye saloon wrx had the standard seats which I found supportive and comfortable.You could pump up the height a bit. I now have a blobeye wagon with Sti seats in the front and I find them too low and unsupportive. This car is lower though and I'm only 5' 8" so maybe better if you are 6 ft. I may change for wrx seats. It should have the black leather heated ones. I have put in a couple of bids for the Jap wagon Sti back bench on ebay up to £225 but still on there for £300.
