Haha, cheers for looking out Marc. I gave Wei @ Vision-R permission to use the photo

Update:

Only a subtle mod and nothing overly exciting, but just swapped out my MY08 seats for a pair of MY10. What a fucking headache though... rails are completely different for the passenger seat for some reason, but the driver's side swapped straight over. Managed to use a combination of a MY08 rail and a MY10 rail to get the passenger seat in.

Had a shit-the-pants moment when I used the wrong bolt and over tightened it, breaking the head off and leaving the thread stuck in a piece of the seat frame. THANK FUCK that piece of frame was easily removed by two bolts and replaced with a piece from my MY08 seats. Now to get a DAMD steering wheel...

When you snap a lower front strut bolt and Subaru tells you they are 6 weeks ex Japan then you know you have fucked up...

Haha, what did you fuck? I fucked a small 3mm thread under the base of the seat that holds the base to the rail.
