Which rear seats from the s13 family will fit in my vert?I heard someone say that the coupe seats will fit but I have just sourced hatch seats and dont know if they fit. btw, feel free to dog on me if you find a thread that discusses this topic.

I know the upper rear seat is smaller than the coupes or hatch so those will not fit. Not quite sure about bottom portion though...I think they are the same size but I could be wrong. I tried to fit the s14 rear seat into there once and it didn't fit at all haha.

I have def seen another thread on this topic somewhere to me for not remembering where. The bottom of hatch seats fit i believe but the tops are far to wide but can be shaved down and the covers re-sealed to fit into the vert. sorry I cant be more help.

yeah dude i have a set of rear hatchback rear seats and they do not fit!! now they are just sitting in my garage. i never thought of chopping them down and reupholstering them cause that would just be too much work . im just going to tear the back seats out anyway

the guy i bought the car from was under the impression that the coupe seats fit better then the hatch seats. i have never compared the two in the car and i dont know how much needs to be cut off to make it fit well.

so what kind of set up do you have? how did you get the top to work, or do you have a top seat in it?

the top seat part of a convertible is impossible to change only if you uphostery the original seats or chop other s13 top seats. the bottom portion will fit by some pushing and squizzing.heres my set up for now:



the top is original and the bottom is a uphostery s13 bottom seat, i also have the top but its impossible to fit...I TRIED....
