Subaru Impreza front seats + Clio ?

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Equals what ... ?

Custom subframes ? Bolt straight on ? Lots of swearing and giving up ?

Anyone done it ?!

Thanks...

Think you might be better with the evo ones and get the Recaro subframes mate.

Custom frames, just need a good metal work guy willing to do you a favour. Won't even take that long to knock something up.

I don't have a clue, but I cannot wait to see it done, sounds mint.
I love it when someone one here breaks the mould, real inspiration tbh

Jamie :thumbsup:

LOL - they are just bucket seats

i'll have the Recaros from my Evo up for sale soon

Someone put Civic Type R seats in a 106, just required cutting up the CTR and 106 frames and welding together. Personally I'd go for the evo seats they look a lot better than ones from a Subaru.

the seats in the Evo 5 and 6 are Recaro Treadlines which came in some clios anyway so at a guess all you would need is to get the clio subframes and they 'should' fit no probs

the only thing they won't do is have the release for getting into the back so you would just need to move/wind it forward

Essentially yeah they are haha !

Evos = >£300 .. found some scoob seats (the full set) £80 near me. My scoob's seats have done 150k and they're still properly comfy/supportive etc.

No need to worry about people getting in the back. The car has a tailgate.

Yeah but usually one here people would be snubbed and called chavy and so on for using Subaru seats and told to just do it proper and be a sheep
Maybe i was a lil over enthusiastic but I like the sound of it

I've also been looking at the Evo options (just as a damn sight cheaper)...Assume you could re-use the same Evo runners, however need the mounting plates specifically for the Clio/182. Assume the lack of tilt forward would be an MOT failure (speed of passenger exit safety thing)...which i would guess would stop the plan for a std road car. Impreza seats could be an option...not as 'pretty', and and unbranded the mounting plates may be more difficult to track, however as some are 3dr, they should/may have the tilt option.?

 

[Paul172sport]

a year bump, but has anyone done it yet? I know of a 2dr scooby breaking so seats tilt

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

LOL nice bumpage

Do it....!

Nothing's impossible.. however I bought another Scoob instead.

Anyone got a guide for fitting Clio seats into an Impreza ? I just find I get too much support from these seats, plus the driving position doesn't feel like I'm sat on a bar stool driving a ferry.

My friend done it with his Fiesta so no reason why you couldn't do it with a Clio. It would require a bit of cutting and welding.

 

[Myfanwyi]

Three year bump....anyone get around to doing this after?

@KrisRS182 Attempted it, and gave up! :grin:
Care to elaborate bud!? :wink:
