I bought this kit off eBay for £58 plus £4:50 p&p My F decided it fancied the scrap yard more than staying on the road so it's now Surplus to requirements. It's brand new, boxed and never fitted. I thought I'd post it here before back on eBay. I would take £45 plus £4:50 p&p for it. Collection is al...

Re: Subaru sti seats in my F

Usual problem pal. Much too high. When I measured everything I was laughing because even the runner bars were the exact same width. But after taking all apart I soon realised that I would have to drive with the roof down lol. As everyone knows you can just bolt them to the floor but I prefer the opt...

Re: Subaru sti seats in my F

Width, depth and height wise it looks ok. ie on paper they "should" fit. My friend said he knows people with them in all sorts of cars including a guy across from him who does things with mx5's.

Subaru sti seats in my F
