08 Si Seats in GE

How hard would it be to fit the seats into a GE? Also is their rails that would fit?

i would try to take the si seats of the stock rails and see if they bolt onto the fit stock seat rails. they might have a universal bolt pattern.

Would it be the same for the GDs and the GEs? If its too much trouble I will just get aftermarket seats and harnesses next year. It would just be nice to have some seats that hug me better around corners.

Hey, you can fit the Si seats into the GE because GE is roomier than GD3. The only problem would be having to use the original tracks of the Si seats when you are installing the seats. You need to customize the seats. I think if you use the after market tracks, it would be a pain. The Si seats in my GD3 are using the original tracks.
