Seats?!?!?!

My seat are tore to sh*t and hardly standable. I found some seats out of a 94 ford probe that look pretty good... not to bad of styling for factory... the brackets look pretty much the same. I was wondering if anybody had done this, im also getting the seats for cheap so ya. Let me hear what u guys think of the idea?

I'm not familiar with the Probe seats so I couldn't say but I've put a few different universals and stuff in FCs and it's not too difficult to make seats fit assuming there is side and top clearance. You just have to take a little effort to make them sit level otherwise your seats may be angled if you just try to mount your stock brackets to the seats or something. You may need to slot the brackets and bend them. or make your own using universal sliders and some sheet metal.

I installed two Recaro's from a '03 Mitsu Evo VIII in my FB.

It was a lot of work. But I like the result.
