interior interchangeable from SW to SX4
« on: February 24, 2012, 03:42:29 PM »

I just picked up a '83 SX4 that has had its interior gutted. 

I know that the front seats from a Eagle wagon/sedan will fit but will the back seat from a wagon fit in the SX4?

I can't say for sure but I doubt it.  You'll probably need to find another SX4 or I think a back seat would fit too, but it would be even harder to find.

And its my understanding that you'll need the seat tracks from the SX4 in order for the wagon front seats to work - the floor is different on these small birds from the wagons.

Good luck!

I've got two complete sets of seats and three interiors for the SX/4. Mosy of the large plastic interior pieces, but not all the smaller bits. I can make a pretty good deal to help you out.

Wagon rear seats will not work in an SX/4. SX/4 seats are smaller due to sharing the same space with the rear tires/fenders.
IIRC, all models are the same from nose to A pillar but all differ from A pillar on.
