Since I bought this thing months ago I’ve been a slave to it’s non supportive front seats. A few days ago I had to drive my Girlfriend to DC and the trip ruined us both. This afternoon I went dumpster diving at my local pick & pull and found a 2003-4 Impreza with the WRX Bucket seats.

I proceeded to pull them and to my surprise today is 50% off day !!! I paid $52 for the pair + the amplifier that I’m going to sell.

Seats go in tomorrow morning.

these seats go for $300-600 online btw. I paid $52

Is this a direct bolt on or are you going to be drilling holes? Curious, my dad has a 97 legacy and the seats kill him. I was telling him he ought to get some cushy seats out of an outback or similar.

From the subaru blog I consulted they supposedly bolt right in, i’ll update you if they do or not tomorrow.

I was about to pull some really comfortable seats out of a forester, but they were a different color sat higher and were not these WRX seats.

Thanks, inquiring minds want to know! The legacy and outback were basically the same car back then so it seems like it should be a bolt on fit.

Yeah they’ll bolt right in, minus MAYBE the one bolt on the side that goes to the tunnel. I don’t remember. I had previous gen Impreza 2.5RS seats in my ‘98 Legacy. SO COMFY.

Would have loved some newer WRX or STI seats though.

Especially at that price!

They bolt right in without modification, go on FSFL on Facebook to see the video and my review.
