As part of the effort to make the car more usable I wanted a rear seat that was more modern. This is a 2011 impreza cloth rear seat assembly. I was able to retain most of the mounting hardware with some modification. They also fold down. Here are a couple pics.
Upper section was by far the most time consuming. The main rod that allows the seat to fold needed to be shortened about 1.5" per side. I then drilled and pins the ends like subaru did to allow for the slotted bracket to fit.
The lower section was easier. It was a basic wire frame with padding. After some manipulation i was able to get about where i wanted it. I still need to add a small platform and filler foam to help level it.
The contour is pretty good by the tub
