Default 2008 wrx leather into 2005 wrx

SO I tried to search it but failed miserably .

I have an 05 wagon and looking to put the 08 wrx wagon leather seats in.
Any one done the swap before ? Are they even compatible?

Leather is like take corner fast nek minit slip slide adventure.

I think also the 02 STI is the last of the good STI seats (can someone confirm?)

My 06 has the shittest seats. Too big

I have factory 05 leather, sucks ass! As per kid's post, slip n' slide everywhere and hard as fuck no matter how often I condition them.
