What happened to the pass side, death by shotgun?

EMO · 2010-11-07, 05:19 PM

Haha no, before I took the pic they had been sitting against something.

Sexy. Wish I had the money, and a DD that didn't have heated leather! GLWS

Ahhhhh, I think I found the seats I want to convert to. What all does it take to make these fit in a suby?

EMO · 2010-11-07, 09:13 PM

I have no clue, but I've seen a few that has them. This is really cheap too

Custom brackets. It's been done by a few people. Actually, Sperry has a set in his SVX, so whatever he did would probably work for you.

If these are the same as earlier EVO seats (mine are from an EVO 8 ), then there are 4 little sub-brackets bolted to the slider rails. Take those off and you have essentially a flat bottom seat similar to just about any aftermarket race seat.

Pretty much any Subaru seat brackets for a Sparco/Momo/RaceTech/etc seat can then be pretty easily adapted to the EVO seat. You just have to drill the proper holes in the brackets and get some grade 8 hardware to mount them up.

When I did mine, since it was for the SVX which is just slightly different in dimensions from the WRX, I just welded up the seat brackets from scratch. This helped me get the seats a touch lower, which is a necessity in the SVX 'cause the roofline is like 6" lower than an Impreza.

I'd like to take a look at these if they're still available.

The one thing that almost made me buy a '06 Evo SE was the interior. Damn that was a nice car.

Buy buy buy

rory_a · 2011-01-28, 10:03 AM

Long shot, but still have these?

EMO · 2011-01-28, 11:23 AM
