Just wondered whether anyone has fitted RX8 seats with their sexy wee rotary symbol in the headrests into an FD.

Someone over the usa got them to fit but they are bigger than standard seats and you run into problems such as the door rubbing off the side of the seat and getting them low enough in the car for it to feel right when driving

It can be done. Did a quick search on rx7club.com and found this.

Also found this picture (sorry, not a very good one) a while back as I thought about putting some in my RX7. They look pretty cool looking through the windscreen though!

Sounds like a bit of hassle but might be worthwhile when I run out of other things to do or fix.
Thanks all for the info.
