Anybody know if the seats from a '89 XT6 would come close to matching up before I pull everything and drive myself crazy? I have a '90 Legacy L wagon.
Thanks! Bret

I just thought of this after sleeping on it. the rails on the xt seats should swap over. If they're removable, it'll be cake. at the most you may have to drill new holes in the xt seats. :)

that's the only problem with the wrx seats' fitment, one of the rails cannot be removed.

I think a better question is why? They're not comfortable or supportive. They've got a nice look to them but I wouldn't sacrifice comfort and supportiveness for looks.

Heck, I was thinking of trying to make the stockers more supportive.

the why

I am just tall enough that it would be really nice to lower and raise the seat to get in and out of the darn car. and yeah - they really do look supportive, and have the lumbar support thing. So are they not really as comfy as they look?

Why not get 90 LS seats then? They have all you want in seats plus the headrests move forward and backward

LS seats

good question. I will look into trying some and seeing if I can get a couple. Any other great ideas are welcome - keep 'em coming. Thanks!
