Hi Yall, I've searched and am getting conflicting answers...

I want to swap out to newer seats in the rear of my 88 HatchBack..
I dont mind losing the Down Reclining Option they have.

Thanks

I still have that setup. Never got a call back from TMI so my project stalled. Here's my thread where I detail out some of the cons, and my solution I have yet to actually wrap up.

Rear seat LOOKS great, but not functional for me, and the kiddos want to go for a ride. Seat backs still fold. Basically I just took off the skin from the SN95 seats and inserted the inner skeleton from the fox seats into it. A few stragic cuts for the various bolt holes, and modding the SN95 latch for the fox, and the seat backs take all of 5 mins to do each and bolt right in and retain the fold down feature. The seat bottom fits like junk.
