Ive got some front seats in mine out of a 2008 GV3, they fit but were a pain to get them in.

WOW! Those seats look so flat and unsupportive.

For some reason they look a bit more bucket style in a GV.

For the cost and effort, probably be better off just getting the standard one's re-bolstered to how you want.

I got mine for just over $100, and they are comfy :wink:

.
The problem with fitting is unlike the original seats that have a flat bottom directly under the seat where the seat rails are then fixed too, these have a wavy metal section.
And then have some kind of rail that comes off of that via some bolt holes that were in the sides of the metal structure under the seats.

There is a build thread somewhere that had a guy bought adaptor rails from the UK and fitted some form of seat, took care of the uneven floor thing really well.

No idea which thread though

I've had MOMO race seats in my Vitara, it was like a contortion act getting in & out IMO the Vitara seats offer zero shoulder support & are pretty average...

This is the link to the seat frames Royce was talking about

http://www.corbeau.com/corbeau/seat_brackets/

It was smally1.6 who bought them & fitted them to a Vitara.
