I always thought it was the other way round! Haha
Thanks for the info! You know this from experience?

As said, fronts will fit, there had been a guide on here at one point I think. It leaves them sitting about 20mm higher tho, which does become noticeable. I changed mine, but in the end up went back to the original seats, added supports and re-trimmed them, far better job imo.

On the 3 door car the outer edge of the seat subframe bolts sideways in to the sill, whereas on the 5 door they go down through the floor. This is correct for the phase 1 at least. Going to remove a 5 door interior at the weekend so I'll find our for sure!
