Looking for RS or WRX Seats
I'm going to be leaving the Bay Are for good on Wednesday - tomorrow. I've got to drive a 93 base model Impreza some 900 miles on stock seats.
Someone please save me from my impending doom.
I need, at the very least, a driver's side RS or WRX seat for the drive.
Ideally, someone has a set that includes both front seats, and the rear seats.
I'm still working until Wednesday, so am only available after work, but I can pick up pretty much anywhere in the Bay Area.
Help me I-Club, you're my only hope!

Wow. Good luck to you. Might want to make a doctors appointment in advance in case you can't find a seat in time 
For anyone who hasn't taken driven for more than an hour on L seats, let me tell you, they're horrible. Someone help this guy.
For reference, the front seats are worth about 200-250 for both for 02 seats. 04's are more, and although they look a little nicer, they have less bolstering. Also, WRX seats in an L raise your seating position quite a bit. If you're taller than 5'9 you might want to look into RS seats. You could move the WRX seat onto L seat rails, and eliminate the height adjustment, but you need a welder to transfer a couple brackets over.

Thanks for the info Impretzle!
I didn't know the WRX seats were that much different from the RS seats. Especially because I thought I gained about 1-2" of clearance when I lost the sunroof by buying this car. Definitely something good to know since I'm 6'2".
And yes, the L seats are abyssmal. I've found the least uncomfortable position for my hour commute - I really wasn't looking forward to 12-14 hours in them...

according to ebay, the market value of them is indeed about 200, so I'll let the 2 fronts go for 200. (last time I rely on Tommah for what fair market value is)
