wrx seats are great in them but they are not quite a straight bolt in, you need to drill 1 hole (per seat) through the floor and add a plate underneath to bolt into.

Everything will feel uncomfy and stiff after driving the Terrano/couch.
Still got the Terrano I hope

cool, just don't chuck out your other seats as you may need them for a wof if your not getting a cert.

Depends how fussy they are being.. mines passed with old subi seats in it (i think maybe leone or early legacy they not the flash deep bucket ones), but it is pretty noticable that theres an extra bolt there

Best seats i have ever sat in 4wd wise were from a jeep grand cherokee Ltd.
so good i bought a pair and shoved in my LN56.
they were leather so mud wasn't an issue but the side and lumber support were a bit worn so got the local upholsterer to re do them.
never did get around to wiring up the heaters and little electric levers in stuff though. just hooked up a battery to the motors to get the drivers seat in "my" position and the passengers ...err semi right.
