A friend mentioned the possibility of switching out my Contour seats for a set of Focus seats. Has anyone done this before? Does anyone know if they will fit? Any pics?
Thanks!

Only thing I've heard/seen of as far as seat swaps go are
1. Putting SVT buckets in the rear, and 2. Swapping a Cougar back seat for a Contour back seat.
Search around the Aesthetics/General mods/pics and vids forums for words like "seat swap", "back seat" and such. Good luck!

yeah I want to get the SVT Focus seats for my 'tour, because i like the two-tone blue and black but I don't know what I would do about the back seat. plus everywhere I have seen them for sale used they are a little expensive for me.

There's a way to do it. Might take a little machining, but nothing to major.
98.5 SVT
91 Escort GT (almost sold)
96 ATX Zetec (i brake to watch you swerve)
FS: SVT rear sway bar
WTB: Very cheap beater

No, that's pimp. With a center console would be pimplicious....if done right.

Me too, one of the moderators on the site did that to his car- black leather bucket seats in the back seat with a little arm rest/center consoule in the middle- looked like a whole new car.

Do you think the Focus seat would retain its height adjust feature inaTour?
That's my biggest complaint about my Mystique - not enough headroom.
