Default Mk3 Escort Cab Interior

my old man is hopefully buying a Mk3 Cabriolet soon. it needs a fresh interior in it. just wondering what fits in?

will door cards from a 3 door shell fit the front? will the rear seats from a 3 door fit? will a Mk4 interior fit (front and rear seats, front and rear door cards), will front seats from FRST's, cossies, etc fit?

you need to change the sub frame on cossie seats, but RST seats should just bolt in

As long as it a Mk4 cabbie interior it will fit straight it.

As the top part of the cabbie seat is not spilt 60/40 like standars xr3i.

As what Less said, rear seat up rights are different, they ain 60/40 split.

Basically from the B pillars back the car is different, interior wise anyway.

I put XR2i front seats in my mk3 cabbie, had to make up brackets so the bolts lined up on the sub frame tho but once in they were a nice snug fit and IMO looked better than the original.

As said above tho, with regard to the rear seats you can only use the mk3 or mk4 cabbie rear bench.
