Will it fit

[Chobobulous]

Will mazda 323 seats fit in a 91 festiva? I found one at a pull a part and they are in way better condition than mine, i would like to replace both the front seats and the rear bench too, has anyone done this before, it looks close.

I believe it was done before. i am not sure if it is a direct plug and play, but it would be close. I would grab the floor brackets in the 323 just to be safe. this way if they are not a direct bolt in, then you can replace the brackets so that they are. I am sure others will know the answer for sure.

I think you can transfer the seatbacks, bottom cushions and covers to the Festiva seat bottom frames and brackets. Here's a link to DJ's GTX seat conversion, which may be similar to what you can do with a regular 323 seat:

picture of rear seats it also had orange gauge cluster.

would 120 for all 3 seats be a good deal, i am not so sure what the going rate is for these kind of seats, 54 for rear bench and like 30 for each bucket

@safteyguy The bench is split in the middle so i dont even know if that would work

I was only talking about the fronts.

That price sounds a bit high, but if they're in excellent shape they may be worth it if that's what you want.

Forget the back seat, probably wont fit. $25 for each front seat sounds about right. That's what I pay here.

[Safety Guy]

IIRC $25 each was what I paid for the last buckets I bought.

As far as the back seat goes, you'd better have some metal and cloth fab skills to redo the framework, combine it with the Festy rear seat frame, weld those head restraint slide tubes, and to make everything fit. I doubt it will be easy. So I'd try to get them to come down on the back seat price. I wouldn't pay more than what the fabric, some metal, and the head restraints are worth to you. Gonna be a custom job so ya better have the MADD SKILLZ.
