    Seat Options

    I searched, can't get a clear option. So what are "bolt on" seats? 2G, 3G, FTO, or 8G?

    3g and 8g of course bolt in, 3g backs line up but don't cover the entire back. lol no one knows about fto seeing that we don't have them in America. diamante fronts require drilling out a new tap in the back and widening the bolts for bolt in the front.

    how bad is it with the back seats being short? I was thinking about changing seats but didnt want to hassle with seat covers in the back. if its not too noticable, i might just get front and rears switched out.

    i saw one FTO in my life. if was at a local park and it said FTO on the back and prototype under it so maybe we got a few.

    i was thinking of doing evo front seats and custom rear leather.

    well the fronts are perfect, and some have the side airbag you can hook up which is a plus.

    the rears leave a few inches of space between seat and door, you can see the metal frame a bit. prob like 3 inches, and eclipse seats leave no fun for the person sitting bitch in back. its squashed

    we are talking about the 7G here not the 8G

    2G hell no
    Evo with hybrid rails system and a few other small mods
    3G/8G possibly with a few mods. i've been meaning to test fit them at the junk yard

    I dont know if you have ever been in the back seat of a 3G Eclipse, then you would notice the difference between those seats and the ones in our 8G. Its slightly smaller, but it seems like a major difference to me. but maybe thats just me, cuz im 6`3

    I saw a picture of a 7G with FTO front seats on this board. I forgot how was it done. Mostly interested in the front seats. Does anyone have any pics of world spec 7G seats?

    NVM, I found it...


    Require custom brackets and the price to ship oversea may not be worth it for me.

    Kevin put evo seats in g-rim. Pretty sure al he did was take the stock evo sliders. Sperate the top from the bottom rail. And install the 7g bottom rail into the evo top rail and boom they bolted right in and fit perfect. If you look at his pics, the colors actually go perfectly w/ the 7g interior
