They're a dime a dozen on Yahoo Auctions here in Japan. Try Import Monster or Jesse Streeter

Unfortunately, shipping is a major problem with getting seats from Japan. I asked Jesse Streeter and he said that they don't ship them as they are too large. So I think I'll have to find something local.

Look up Allan aka "STi Heaven" on Gumtree. He's always wrecking STi's. He's bound to have some and he will ship if required.

I asked him about seats and brakes, but he only responded about the brakes. Seems he isn't too keen to talk about seats. Or just didn't read the whole message. :S

Yup, he's like that. He's quite a busy guy and tends to miss some detail in messages - try to keep your items in a simple bullet list rather than part of a larger paragraph, which seemed to work best for me.

Everything of note is worth something to him, though he tends to ditch the doors, panels (!) and master brake cylinders right away because he feels they are not worth the effort for the return and he doesn't like to stockpile. Most of his money is made on engines, gearboxes, diffs, wheels, calipers, dashes, seats, and instrument clusters. Most of his stuff is actually shipped out instead of being sold locally. Occasionally he'll sell an empty shell to a rally team somewhere too, but normally they're chopped up and junked.

I've been to his lot - you don't want to leave when you see it as there's so much stuff there. It's also a veritable playground for his cat...
