Could not find any threads relating to just the 2.5rs. I want to get rid of my leather interior and go with a black cloth so do they fit? I have had mixed answers. Also will the front seats from the coupe work? What rear seats will work? Sedan/wagon? I beleve the bracket mod can be done with wagon seats to have the fold down style. Thanks.

The fronts should work fine, based on the theory you can put WRX seats in either the GC or BD with no issue. Back seats I have no idea

I have the rs seats front and rear in my lgt. They fit fine. I was tossing the idea around in my head of trading you because I like leather but I think Ive decided I like the thicker bolsters of the rs seats where the leggy ones are pretty flat.

Mine are from a coupe and work fine

For the rear you will lose the fold-downable functionality of the seat

Yup they fit fine and are TONS more comfy then the 2nd Gen seats.

Definitely - they're very similar to the WRX seats (which I have) and I love mine!

You sit a little higher, but I'm 6'2" and have a longer than average torso and I'm ok with it.

Alright like i said mine are really nice. I just am not a fan of leather. I love the rs seats though! I will get you a couple more pics like you asked.

That's hot. Any review on the support that the bolstering provides? Are they comparable to the wrx seats in any way?

Back is similar to 02-03 seats... bottom is pretty flat.
