They will although you will need to take the connection rails off your original seats. It will also give you airbag warning light on the dash as you will be disconecting the ones in the seats. This can be resest,at cost at the local spanner monkey hang out (main dealers)

i just thought of something to add to my previous question,

the seats in mine are just normal ones, not sports or anything, would i still be able to use the runners and subframe off mine??

You can use the same frame. It may just need to be slightly modified. Ie new holes drilled to allow for attachment of the new seat. Maybe a bit of sheet welded on to allow for differeance in attachment spacing.

As to the ride hight i would imagine it will be rather lower. ( probably a good bit lower than the original in its lowest position.) So wont work if your a short arse. Due to the height agustment being part of the seat and not the subframe.

Any other questions just ask.
