would need a lot of wrok, like the seat base would need to be cut to fit as its that long, and the back seats wouldnt latch upeither so this would be needed to modify to make fit and getting them to bolt up would be a pain aswell lol

front need brackets made for the subframes, and there very wide and rub almost against each other

its been done though but not worth it i dont think

Rear would be a pain in the arse.

Best bet if you want some leather is either interior from an Onion E or mk4 Tennis.
