Will FTO seats fit into a Lancer?

Post by Kittz »

I was looking at buying some fto seats for my lancer.

Will they fit with the standard rails? If not how much work needs to be done in order for them to fit?


Thanks

CE lancer i.e.
No idea on whether it will fit or not though. Buy the rails for it too ? Not expensive from wreckers i'm sure.

Save the extra and get the Evo Recaro's ... They will fit with the Recaro rails ... I put the Evo VI into my CC with no drama's ... front passenger ... Straight in ... Front driver, just needed the bolt hole to be widened a bit to make it not on an angle .... (or was it the other way round) ... rear was direct fit too....

When my Evo project comes out of the panel shop I can try to see if they bolt into the FTO ... But may take some time as the car is getting stripped back to bare metal to be re-sprayed...
