I have recieved a bunch of messages about my seats so I thought I would post this for everybody to check out.

The issue lies mostly with the screw holes and the hooks and the center fold down piece.

Only one of the screw holes line up, so I had to drill 2 new holes which was no big deal, and there are these hooks which are kinda difficult to hook together but its possible to get it done.

Also the center fold down piece down not full shut, since it does not line up correctly. Pretty much it isnt flush witht he rest of the seats and it will fall down if I go over like 90 mph and the road isnt all that smooth.

You can line it up pretty much the same but the gap on the sides is about 1 inch which isnt noticeable at all really. Also the bottom of the seats dont line up flush all the way.

I have had these installed for about a year now and despite all the little issues I still keep them in there and had absolutly no urge to swap them back out.

As for the front seats they lined up exactly the same as the stock Legacy seats, the only problem is the bottom part where you put your seatbelt into rubs up against the center console which can cause little scrath marks, but besides that I had no issues.

Here are the pics.... (I didnt have a chance to clean the inside of my car os its a little dirty...)

This is usually flush but it sticks about 2-3 inches away form the hole it needs ot screw into, just push a little and its fine.

There was a small plastic ridge that was pushing the armrest/passthrough out. I cut it off, but I haven't thought up a way to secure the pass through so the armrest could actually be used.
