Right guys.. ive came across a set of FD seats i like and are local and i was just wondering if they would fit right into the FC? He said they come with subframes. This is them here.

not sure to be honest
buy them and if they dont fit - sell them on again
if they do fit - we need a complete write up about it :D
haha.. IF i am able to install them haha.. id probably need some help. How much do you honestly think these are worth anyways?
I saw these on the ol eBay and was tempted meself. I think they\'re a fair price, tbh. Leather FD seats seem to fluctuate wildly in price at random, but £150 seems pretty much in the middle of the ballpark. It was the £55 postage that put me off, but if you\'re close enough to collect them, then they seem a good price, depending on condition. Difficult to tell fom the photo, but it looks like they might have the subframes too, which are worth a wee bit on their own, and could make fitting possibly easier than trying to butcher your FC subframes to fit the seats. Dunno for sure if they\'d fit in an FC though
I\'m just waiting to see what the lowest price is he would go. I live within 5 miles of the buyer so collection would be fine.. I just hope they don\'t sell before he gets back to me!
5 miles? just buy them :D
Well i made him an offer via email but he didn\'t accept.. So i\'ve asked him how much.. he obviously doesn\'t need the whole £150 otherwise he wouldn\'t have put the best offer option on.. hehe..
Turns out it is an ex-girlfriends little brother who is selling them.. haha, what are the chances??! He is giving me them for the price i originally offered him.. hopefully picking them up tomorrow night! :) Still don\'t know if they will fit..
i fitted rx8 seats in my fc but had to get rid as my head was hiting the roof,took a good bit a work to fit them,(http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd257/fc3s/P7250008.jpg)
Thanks for that man. I seen on a forum that its not a good idea as it will sit far too high as you have mentioned.. :( might just need to get some good covers.

If you\'ve not set on white, what about recaro\'s out of a RS turbo or cosworth?
They sound expensive! haha.. I think id rather get those ones on eBay brand new than pay ££££ for a second hand set.
