Hatch seats into a blobeye
hi guys was just wondering if the sti seats from a 08 hatch would fit into my blobeye without too much messing about many thanks jay :thumb:
|
I've put em into a Hawkeye, but bought mine without runners (they ended up under Recaros in the hatch) and swappin the runners is "Tricky" there is a thread on the NASIOC website have a look at that for more info.

2008 seats will drop into a Hawkeye, 3 of the 4 bolts line up. The rear bolt closest to the transmission tunnel doesnt match up and will need to be altered.
I was doing this mod myself but found that the STI seats in the latest Imprezas are nowhere near as good as newage WRX seats |

TBH, I've not been imprerssed with Subaru's evolution of seats over the years.
They seem to sit higher and be for more lardy types too:( |

It will be days before you get pics as he is snowed under, but they are as new 2011 STI seats, I've just got a set for a mate that are identical so I could get pics of them to show you what they look like?

What 2011 sti seats for £200?????
Are they a bit poor or something??? |
If you guys aren't buying those front 2011 STi hatch seats, or if someone has another set I'd be interested in upgrading my 08 hatch ones.
Thanks |

As per above, 2011 STI's aren't (IMO) as supportive as 2002 WRX's
I'll ask how many sets he has A pic of the same seats in my mates Vectra http://i734.photobucket.com/albums/w...011stiseat.jpg |
Must be the pic, as he has the hatches lined up in his workshop. They are NOT Alcantara though if that is what anyone is expecting. They are very similar cloth to Bug/Blob WRX seats - can't compare to Hawk as I've never been in one
|
Anyone got any pics of hatch STI seats in a newage? Interested to see how they look.
|
These are my 08 ones... I thought they were standard
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h2...t/a63ed432.jpg |
only JDM come with recaro's I think
|
You could order them as a special on facelift classics.
|
I've got a pair of the 08 hatch Sti seats for sale if anyone is interested. There the alcantara & leather ones in as new condition.

And they're fantastically over-rated and over-hyped. |
