Default STi seat switch?

I have a Legacy B4 & want to fit Impreza STi Seats.
The Legacy has a wire from the seat belt reel that connects to under the seat.
I believe this is for the pretensioners.
So my question is do STi seats have the same connector under their seats?

Thanks in advance.

Is it not for the "you forgot your seatbelt" bong?

You may find the STi seatbelt reel connector doesn't fit your Legacy seatbelt. So you will probably be able to retain that feature anyway.

I bought some seats for my Forester, but the person I bought them from used the seatbelt units for theirs, and put the legacy one on the seats I bought. My Forester seatbelt wouldn't clip in the Legacy units, and the Forester an Impreza are very simular.

If you put a request somewhere, some one migth mesaure the STi seatbelt clip for you, and you could compare that to yours.

Hi Joey,thanks for the reply.I will be keeping the seat belts in my Legacy & just replacing the seats.

Thanks guys,as always.I was worried the switch/sensor under the seat may have been a safety issue.
