yes they would fit (you have to modify the sliders though). lord knows what kinda fabric that is but it's about 100 dollars cheaper than the vinyl seats... so i wouldn't expect the quality to be very good. i'd say that it's single stitched and that you'd rip the seams pretty fast actually

i don't know though, get some more opinions

i used to have the red and black ones but before i could install them they were stolen. i always sat in them at my old apartment and it never ripped. but that was for only like three weeks worth. even if it does tear just get the cloth redone later with whatever you like and then it'll be done right. still a lot cheaper that like $400 a seat from sparco. even though sparco is the shit when your broke like us you gotta go with what you can get.

people would make lots of fun of you because you have fake ralliart seats

ralliart is the sti, svt, trd, etc for mitsubishi's... so that wouldn't go over well

its not really the sliders that the issue. its the fact that they don't come with mounting brackets. and the stock ones are a bitch to get off if you can get it off at all without having to cut some welds. i tried it once and the damn thing wouldn't budge b/c i found out there are like four bolts welded on the seat. and the second pair you found i don't think would fit. you gotta think about the size of the seat. take a tape measure to the cushion that you sit on, then the lumbar support back,then the height of the whole seat. b/c if you get too wide then you won't be able to shift out of park easily or use your hand brake and too tall of course just wont fit.
