2011 Sti Heated black alcantara seats fit a 2008 STi???

i just recently purchased a 2008 Sti and noticed it didnt have the heated seats like in the 2011 i also test drove. i also really liked the black alcantara inserts instead of the grey that the 2008 has. is there a place you can buy these seats and are they just a bolt on?

thank you for any feedback

The 08-11 STI seats are all the same and will bolt right in.
There are several ways to go about this.

• Swap the seats with someone else.
• Buy someone elses seats (then sell yours).
• Just add a heated seat kit.
• Have your seats reupholstered and add a heated seat kit.

i was leaning towards using the Subaru seats just for the stock look and feel. also i can use the wiring and switches that were designed for the car. is there any way to purchase the stock seats new, like the parts dept? ill also give ebay/craigslist/parts yard a try.

thanks for the info. hopefully someday ill be able to answer questions instead of just asking.
