Hi Guys

I have had a look around and cant find anything

Are you able to put 2003+ STI seats into a GC8

What I want to know is - is there much worked needed to get the front & rear seats in and will they fit. I have also read there are airbags in some of the seats as the GC8 doesnt have airbags in the seats I wont be connecting them will this be a problem.

Cheers

Only 06+ WRX of the GD's had airbags if I remember correctly.

Rest will bolt up.

Bolt in fit. But if you are tall you will be screwed....

The drivers seat is 30mm higher on it's lowest setting compared to the stock Gc seats.


Rear is bolt in too.

P.s sell airbagged seats (they weigh a ton!!) & buy lighter non-airbagged ones
