The seats out of up to hawk eyes won't fit in the hatch, best bet will to either repair or replace with STI hatch seats which also have the airbags in them. I picked a pair of fronts up which were pretty much new for £200

Subframes share pretty much 3 out of the 4 bolt holes with a little fettling, had to completely modify the rear inner bracket completely to get them to fit in a classic
