I thought have making the integ rear seats work, they have head rests and look more comfy. They are little bit skinnier but would definetly be doable with some customization

Yeah, I thought that too. I tried the swap from a 1G Teg. hatch, and luck was not on my side that day. No Go! The seat is just WAY to narrow, and the seat backs have the bolt post too low on the seat which creates a gap bet. the seat bottom and back. The only way to make that work would be to remount the back pivot posts for the seats about an inch/2 lower then where they are currently. Then, for the problem of the seat bottom, good luck finding a way to siden the seat, and for the backs, re-contour the backs to fit the wheel wells.

Conclusion: by looking at the two separatly, it looks like it might just be a direct drop in, but when really attempting it, you realize that it's not a possibility.:banghead:

sedan and coupe are NOT interchangable. I've owned both and the sedan has those smaller cushions on the sides that are stationary and do not fold down with the rest of the seat. The coupe's whold rear seat back folds down as one piece.
