i tried it when my buddies car got rear ended and got totalled, def need some custom mounts/brackets/ sliders, i was just gonna bang on the rails and screw em to the floor but that was a no go and it sits high

It is possible, someone on Club4ag put STI seats in his corolla, it looked really bad(imo) but he did it so I'd imagine it would be possible in a 240

sti seats would beout of the question they have the big STI logo on them, lol. the wrx seats are nice and comfy and have an srs logo on the door side about shoulder high meaning side airbags.

VERDICT IS: they need custom mounts.

wrx seat mounts(only where the bolt goes) elevates the seats tooo high. we put the seats in and sat in em just for shts and giggles .. felt like i was sitting in a rocket ship looking straight out my sunroof leaned back, the roof had to be open or i wouldnt fit. mounts are aprox 1.7" wider apart and barely fits in there if you wanna go at it w/ a drill but seemed to be too stuctualy unstable. i still may use these seats however, i need to find someone to saw off my s13 brackets and weld them on the wrx seats. would be a fun weekend job cause i wouldnt be the one welding i dunno how. although i would have to find an extremely good welder. I am confedent that w/ the new brackets the seats would fit nicely in the s13. Thus concludes the verdict.

if i do put get these done ill post pics. it would suck however to ruin some good seats. I'll have time for this project umm not this weekend but next. i'll update then.

someone posted they wanted to buy these seats. they're in great condition how much they go for?

If you figure out how to do this, post the details of what you did and how.

I've been wanting to use 2004 WRX black seats in my S14 since day 1 (used to own a 2k4 WRX, LOVED the seats).

by friday night i should have the seats finished and in(w/ a little luck), ill bring my camera and document the process.

why would i want to do this? eh, my car.. i want to. the worse that can happen is i would have to buy new seats if this doesnt work which im doing anyway.

w/ new brackets i wont be sitting too high, everything should fit perfect, well i may sit 0.25" - 0.5" higher. I'm getting these seats w/ a great deal..what you selling yours for?
