I know someone that has front and rear hatch seats from an 86. Will that be a headache to swap into my 91 hatch? Or is it an easy ordeal..

lmk thanks!

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

The mounting points on the floor plans are identical, should be a straight forward swap. Good luck.

Cool thanks a lot. I'm glad I didn't jump on some expensive seat covers...

Hey, all you have to do is ask some times. Welcome to the board by the way.

Indeed. Ask and you shall receive.

Thanks! I'm very happy with my new hatch... Excited to get it 100% one day

For what it's worth, every seat from 1979 to 2004 will bolt directly in. Some of the later model seats (I think the 99+ models) have the seat belt buckle attached to the seat, but the physical mounting points are the same.

OK so I am getting my hands on some immaculate grey with red accenting front and back seats from an 86 for a great deal. Thanks for the help!
