Unhappy so i can put 3 chicks in it

haha, if only the title were true.
my question is about the feature few of u care about: REAR SEATS. they weren't listed in the features documents i saw in another post. and my search didn't turn up much. bottom line: i want 'em, and i wanna know what cars i can put 'em in. i plan to buy an fc soon, probably an s4, and i wanna know which models they came in and if i can swap 'em into something else, a turbo car, for instance? those faq for s5 models welcome too. thanks.
~currently tied to an ff.

You can put them in any FC, just got to remove the storage bins. The seats aren't full size seats. If the girls you are planning on picking up are over 7 years old, they will be uncomfortable as hell back there.

The seats can be put into any model FC (other than convertible) I think. N/A, Turbo, S4, S5.....does not matter.

The question is not whether you can put three chicks in it, but rather:
Can you put it in three chicks?

What color you need? I have some somewhat rough condition rear seats in red cloth in my 86 parts car. Email me at ThePartsYouNeed@aol.com if you want pics or to make an offer.

How safe are the rear seats in an accident? Just a random though, I rarely have more than myself in the car, but I will probably be in need of a spot to stick a baby seat before I want to get rid of the car...

Those seats would be far safer than strapping the baby down in the storage bins.

LOL Exactly my thought.

At least you couldn't offer a ride to any chicks over 110 lbs.

I had 8 people in the hatch, with the hatch up. At my friends party right around the corner in my neigborhood. It was funny, I floored it once in first and scared the shiznit outta all of them.

But seriously, if a girl even resembles J. Lo., she WILL have problems fitting back there

If they driver and passender arent midgets as well as the rear seat occupants, NOONE will be even halfway comfortable. Me and my friend(both 6') were int he front seats, and 2 chicks were in the back seats.....that was the most uncomfortable 3 blocks Ive ever driven. I had to have my seat way forward so there was actually a place for their legs, and it left me and my friend very cramped in the front.

I've got backseats in my 7, I really like them. I mean, they're UTTER PAIN for whoever's in the back seat, but it's really nice to have in a pinch. I use my 2+2 at least a couple times a week.

Hi all. Thanks for the feedback. I discovered that I had skimmed a bit too quickly over the "what did my fc come with" post, cuz the seats feature is in those sheets. (oops). but it is very good to know i can swap 'em into pretty much any car i might buy (not looking for droptop now). For those wantiing to sell, thanks, but i don't want the red. but hey, other readers may! k. thanks agin.
~ jeff
p.s. ya, the chicks are over 7 yrs old. sheesh. i had to drive to D1 in irwindale last time in an extended cab chevy = motivation for this post.

I have never seen the legless midget that those seats were designed for.
Just don't believe for a minute that they will be worth a dam* for any adult.

The manual/warning stickers say do not put any older then 13 years of age in the back seat or they risck serious injury. I sat in them once. Im 5'4 at about 115lbs, i felt fine but im a tiny guy. BUt another guy is about 5'6 at about 18-lbs was not. just fold the seat down, strap the biotches dpwn and go
