Will rear seat of Convertible fit to Coupe?
I have a 04 coupe and would like to upgrade my seats from fabric to leather. Would both front and rear seats of a 03 convertible fit to my 04 coupe? I persume the front seat will fit but I have noticed the rear seat is different.
The rear seat of the convertible need not to fit perfectly. I wonder whether I can just put it on my old rear seat. Would the convertible rear seat also bend forward as the coupe rear seat? Many thanks in advance.

The seat is narrower that the coupe's. And it doesn't fold down in the 'vert. Don't know how this affects ability to mount in a coupe. But since the back mounts to the body, I say no it won't work in the coupe since there is nothing to mount to.

The front seats may not be compatible on the airbags. Does yours have the "Passenger Airbag OFF" indicator in the dash?
The rear seat won't fit. While the bottom cushion uses the same mounting points, the shape/contour is entirely different, and the backrest is designed to bolt in.

Yes! Mine has an Air-Bag Off indicator
Yes mine has an Air-Bag Off indicator on my dash.
Do you think those front seats will work on mine? Mechanically it will fit to mine, right? The only problem will be the airbag, if there is any problem, right?

A few more questions regarding front seats
Hi, could you help me with the following questions. Thanks
I have a 04 Coupe (with "Airbag Off" switch on the dash)and found two used seats 1) one is 03 convertible seats Question: Will the airbag work if I do proper wiring? Will the two front airbags (not those in the seat) work, at least? 2) Another is 04 coupe seats (same model) Question: this one has heated seat function (mine doesn't). Will the airbag work? Do I need to modify the wiring? With proper wiring and additional parts can I even make the heated function workable? (if so what parts do I need?) Many thanks in advance. Gun
