The pre98 SE's did have larger side bolsters and they were closer together. This would have worked fine for the European market, but I guess since American do seem to be *cough* larger (NO OFFENCE TO ANYONE), those narrower seats were ditched in favour of the less tight fitting seats that were in the SVTs.... I'm sure someone can add more details to this..... My suggestion, would be find a super skinny person with an SVT of the same interior colour, and trade with him/her......
