    Default How hard would it be to change the interior seats?

    Out of curiosity really more than anything, but prior to buying the Stilo I have now I had a Rover Streetwise with part leather seats, the back being two seats as oppose to three, unfortunately a lorry drove into me and wrote the car off, before signing it over to the pound we took what we could from it, including the seats!

    My question is, would it be possible to change the seats from the stilo to the leather ones from the streetwise, if so how hard would it be?

    At the moment its just a thought as I have 4seats sitting in my bedroom lol.

    Very hard does the streetwise have airbags in the seats and does it have the seat belt sensors are the connections the same etc I doubt that if it had all of this it would be compatible anyway...Best bet is sell your streetwise interior and get the stilo leather interior off ebay or some also note that 5 & 3 door interiors are different.

    i cant see the rear seat being the same dimensions as the stilo mate
    you could possibly swap the fronts but you would probably have to adapt the seat rails to fit.

    There is one model in the alfa range that uses the same seats right down to air bag connectors on the front ones..it belongs to one of the greek lads..
