The WRX came in to styles, the one piece jobbies that I would prefer in mine, similar to the STi ones if not the same except for the cover as you suggest, don't quote me....

And these



Not the best pic, but they have adjustable head-rests and are slightly wider

I went from newage (one piece) seats to STi seats They are a different shape....... the bit that you sit on is slightly narrower and longer and has a different angle.

Would like to replace my standard WRX interior with whatever is the better seat

STI 7 seats are much MUCH tighter and snugger than that of the later cars..

The best standard seats out there IMO bar that of the S203/4 recaros etc.

I really fancy some carbon buckets but i love my V7s too much lol

been offered seats and door cards off a 2001 for 150 quid! so couldnt justify spending 350 as id imagine theres not much difference!
actully looking at the pm i recieved it seems the wrx seats are slightly different to sti in the way they feel! aparently wrx are comfy sti are better for high speed action.
