It's the worst thing ever and I wish I was dead now.
Tried putting V5 seats into an 06 WRX = worst mistake EVER.

Side airbag sensor on the pass side = no airbag for passenger, wires are a PITA to disconnect, holes don't match up without dremel (so close, but so far.).

Its fixed. After a bunch of headache. (airbag issue still not fixed)
The seats are incredible in the WRX. They were in my RS... But damn, they change the feel of the entire car. Best seats ever.

+1 for V5 seats! I have some JDM WRX ones in my car which are pretty much the same as the jdm ver5/6 sti seats but they dont say sti on them and damn they hug nicely. alot better than usdm wrx seats
The airbag light is easy enough to fool
Just wire 3 10ohm resistors in parallel or find a 3.3ohm resistor, then stick it in the female socket
Did the same with my 05 driver seat when I put in my V8 seats. But yeah, you shoulda found some V8/V9 seats to bolt right in =P

I rigged the wiring for the "ding ding ding ding" for the seatbeat to NEVER go off again.
I was fooling around with the passenger seat sensor but I didn't want to take apart the old seat completely to get that gell pad out... so I just mangled it up. I was very high on vicodin (just had surgery). But, yeah... I need a resistor to get it to think someone is sitting there.
I need a resistor to disable the SRS on the driver's side.
Still too hazy to think clearly.
