Difference between JDM STI 2003 seats vs spec c seats (apart from colour)
Hi all,
What are the differences between the standard JDM STI seats for blobs in comparison to the Spec c seats?
Cheers

Side airbags I believe, possibly heating elements too.
But that may also depend on the factory options installed when new, like all things subaru you never actually know until you have the exact parts in question side by side.

My 2003 JDM Blob seats don't have airbags or heating elements
God that would be lovely in the winter if they did

No difference in the seat, The rails might be slightly different but i doubt it, The UK black WR1 seats have a different slide rail running accross the front of the seat rather than just a small handle like the JDM`s do

The rails are different Gaz,my sti seats had a small handle to adjust on the side no long bar so that's not a JDM thing

I was about to say colour. Then i realised you were asking about a 2003 car.
So, no difference then.

What we all need is a set of S204 seats. Yes please! They must be ultra light?
