2008? golly, I wouldn't have though so. I originally typed out a response based on the earlier swift, which was definitely possible, but the 08 swift is a very different car. A tape measure and a good look will tell you.

Don't they have side airbags?

Tried them, they have a tilt adjustment that Makes the front rails quite hard to work with.

THIS! 20014 model IIRC.

the easiest seats to fit your SJ70 would be a pair of swift GTI seats, if you can find some. There is a couple of threads with info in them.

it's possible to fit late model swift recaro seats into a jimny using the jimny seat frame & rail if that helps. there's a tutorial about it on bigjimny.com

I bolted in 2010 swift seat into my fist sj70 about 4 years ago.

i literally put four bolts through the rails and out the bottom of the car lol.

even though there was zero adjustment the positioning seemed perfect and they were super comfortable. The back tilt still worked like a charm. The plastics covering the inner sides of the chairs needed some modification
