anythings possible....they look pretty decent, and i suppose you could just bolt on your brackets somehow....worst case is youll need some metal to bend or weld to adapt them togeather....ya know...like little L brackets or something..

and look up sub wrx pics and try the 360 view interior. the look like a sparco or recaro racing seat just alittle more plush. i have personally driven a wrx and think the seats hold you in place nice and tight.

just use some flat bar and adapt the subby seats to the stang seat tracks make sure you use good bolts lock nuts or washers so it is secure and bolt it all it

my car came with eclipse seats with home made adapter brackets holding them in. I redrilled my 87's seat tracks to hold some cheap ebay racing seats before too.

The seats I just saw were blue and grey.

If they are solid color or 2 toned in grey blk it wouldnt look bad.

haha

I guess if there aren't any Subaru, Impreza, or WRX logos on them, then it wouldn't kill me to see them in a Fox. If it looks good, it looks good. and its not like you are pulling them out of a Camaro.

theres no logos anywhere on WRX seats. Make sure theyre from 04+ and not STI seats.

Those are my seats in my 05 WRX, This picture was taken when i first got my car in nov, 2004.

After being with the seats for 4 years, I wouldn't suggest doing it. The driver and passengers seat is not lower back friendly. They look great though. Just make sure you can adjust them properly, I sat in a older 3rd gen GTI with the same seats as mine. It was a hack job, as far as the rails went and the seats were very oddly positioned and uncomfortable also.
