Default Prodrive P1 rear seat same as Version 6 rear seat?

I was able to score some brand new P1 front seats here in the states. That was actually an easy find. Finding the rear seats however is something else. I did however find some STI version 6 rear seats for a pretty good price and in good condition. Is the fabric the same on the P1 rear seats and the STI version 6 rear seats. I would at least imagine it looks better than the fuggered black checkered 2.5RS seats that come standard here.

cheers

Style is likely to be the same but colours, probably not. Most I've seen have red shoulder flashes rather than blue.

Well I have the front seat already and the rears IIRC don't have any accent colours. I thought the basic fabric was similar but I have never seen a P1 in person or able to find pic's of the rear seats compared to STI V6 seats.

cheers

Supposedly!... The P1 and the STI share the same rear seat. They're mostly the same it looks except for floormats trunkmat and the accent colour on the front seats.

You're right, there aren't any flashes on the rear seats. Dunno why I forgot that

Seat fabric for the P1 rears is the same grey/blue twist (?) type like the the fronts. The seat pads are the same grey suede.

I don't know if the STI rears will have the same grey/blue material.

i've got the P1 seats and for a while had the rear seats from a v5 or v6, not sure which though.

the blue/black material is exactly the same, the grey alcantara centres were slightly different shades though.

this could have been down to storage, fading etc etc as both front and rear seats were second hand from different cars, but there was definately a difference, however it wasn't too noticable, and you could only really tell when they were held against each other

DAMN! Well I hope it's not that noticeable. At least the black and blue fabric is the same. And I'm almost positive the STI seat won't smell like a wet pooch.
