these will not fit at all. That is why you will realise they are useless, sell them to me half of what you paid for them and pay the freight because they are now worthless.

First of all, do you like the RX8 seats, find them comfortable?

Secondly, do you require that the seats match?
The reason I ask is because the drivers seat is pretty easy to fab in, the passenger side is a royal PITA. Unbolt your passenger seat and turn it over and you'll see why.

Nothing besides the stocker is an easy swap.

+1 thats why my pass seat is just bolted solid. i don't sit there and damn these cars don't have that much room on the inside anyhow who needs to slide it up.
