Question Do s14 and/or s15 rear seats fit in an s13

Hi all,

I am looking to upgrade my seats. I know that s14 fronts are a direct bolt in replacement for s13, but is it the same for the rears?

If not, does anyone know what mods you have to make to them so that they can fit?

please let me know.

TIA

you might get it to fit, but it might be wider than your 89 stock rear seat. Then there's a matter of locking the seat into place... plus you're putting a coupe rear seat in a hb rear end...

...if you need rear seats that bad, check the classifieds section for someone parting out an S13HB... I'm sure it won't cost that much just to buy one that was designed to fit in your car

I have a 90 240 and actually i had an idea of taking out the rear seat and adding 2 stock fronts seats in the back instead. Would that be difficult? Plus maybe adding harness to those same seats.

Not enough space... the rear seats would be higher than the front... if it did fit, you'd have what the minivan people call "stadium seating".

If you do that rameek..there will be less headroom for the passengers. That would suck

you could fit like one of those 1 person sofa's in the back seat, like a lazyboy, lol. That'd be a badass back seat.

I figured no 1 can sit back there anyway but it was an idea that i may still may look into it. It would be different!

OKAY wait a sec - a 5'10" guy and a 5'8.5" girl can fit in the back of an S14. On one side.

even in my s14, i sit with the seat all the way back when i drive, im about 6ft tall, the only ppl that can fit behind me are cripples with no legs or contortionists(ppl who can squeeze into tight spaces)...

oh, and rameek, whats the pic of the skyline for?

Trust me.

If you are 5'10" and "Beb" is 66" of legs........then what 5'8.5" (68.5") girl are YOU in the back seat with? I'm not hating.....just an observation.
