How easy to change the front seats in a MY08 or MY11

Hi all

Got a guy really interested in my MY11 STI but he is a bit broad for the seat and wants to know how easy it is to swap them for some aftermarket items?

I know Recaro do a wider seat that will match the interior well and he'd easiily sell the factory Recaro's but how easy are they to swap over?

Cheers
Arron

I thought it was quite easy ,, the seats I brought had subframe from a classic so three holes lined up but one didn't , so I mad a bracket to go from the mounting point to the seat mounting , took about half a hour ,, fitted resistor to remove airbag light aswell , got a very good price for my recaros aswell
