Hops Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Ohh and what about getting classic soft trim or catzkin to do seats in that combination? I'd like to do something like this on my wife's wagon... I was thinking '08-'09 Spec B seats, but the rear is definitely different. Buy my cars!

Hops Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) Rear Seat: Part 2Here are the brackets and hinge...http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05395.jpgLuckily, the brackets and hinge bolt right up to existing holes and you can use the original bolts left over from removing the '05 junk. Use these for the hinge:http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05421.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05428.jpg And use these for the brackets:http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05425.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05422.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05426.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05427.jpg To install the seat backs to the brackets, the seat must be folded down flat (without the seat bottom).http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05424.jpg Now, bolt up the back of the seats to the hinge. You'll need eight of these:http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05433.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05435.jpghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05436.jpg The bottom fits in just like the '05.http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05438.jpg And there it is. OEM quality folding rear seats in an '05.http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05437.jpg Edited January 8, 2010 by Hops Buy my cars!

Leonardo Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Me too... Wife is jealous. That interior was offered in a limited edition in Japan, correct? When Solberg got the championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 SWP with the blue Alcantara was made in Japan? Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonardo Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 don't know about the exterior colors but I think it was WRB with the blue Alcantara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 I have not seen... Seems like too much blue! I think the white on blue is a perfect balance. I never really liked the DGM with blue quite as much as this combination. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonardo Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I kick ass! here: http://www.rakuten.co.jp/csfunatu/669373/668589/#670685 Now, what are the chances a limited edition like that will wreck, cuz we would need two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Wow! Bad ass! I don't know if I'd dig GRP with blue interior, though... Maybe '08-'09 Spec B black Alcantara. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 We are in the same predicament! Really looking into Classic Soft Trim or Katzkin Hey, sedan and wagon rear door cards are the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm pretty sure they are the same... I will examine mine when I have some time. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocHolladay23 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I wish I could do this for my brick red seats, I miss the folding rear way more than I thought I would [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] You want stickers?

Hops Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 I wish I could do this for my brick red seats, I miss the folding rear way more than I thought I would My car is a garage/track queen, so I doubt I will ever fold my seats down again! I'll do all the work for you and swap you interiors, if you like! I love my blue suede, but I still think red > blue! Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 So what were the part numbers to the clips? I too was unable to find the parts from Subaru. Are you talking about this? http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n121/JDMChizad/Seat%20swap/DSC05358.jpg I'm still missing these... Can't find them anywhere! Going to check some junkyards when I get some time. The side pieces still fit just fine without them, though. I'm a perfectionist, so let me know if you come across some if I don't find any.

Hops Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Just ordered Spec B floor mats to add the final touch! Well... I still need those door cards! Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc7 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yep that's the piece. One side came with the clip and the other didn't. How did you splice the power seat adapter? My drivers side seats have 4 wires going into the seat, while my harness has a 2 wire connector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My drivers side seats have 4 wires going into the seat, while my harness has a 2 wire connector. Mine came with only one as well! Then I broke it when I was working on cutting the holes. The 2 of the 4 wires are a thicker gauge... Use those. We didn't use the other two and everything still works fine. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I suppose. But some of us don't want to look like we're old, or a father. I guess looking lame is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
