Seating question

Postby VRXblack » Sat Jan 07, 2017 2:40 pm

Hi All

I have been trying to find any sort of information online but kind find anything at all so figured i'd come to the best place online.
I'm looking in getting some seat covers for my car, I have found some but the seller is telling me they are custom fit for 2013/2014 CJ Lancer hatch, so my question is will these fit my 2010 VRX sedan?

I would assume that the sizing of the seats wouldn't have changed for the CJ model, but thought i would double check.

Much appreciated as always guys!!!

They should be fine. I the vrx seats have a little more side bolstering then the base model, but not much. Can you test fit them before buying?

GSR and vrx are the same I'm pretty sure. I would take the chance and purchase them especially if you really want them and they are well priced. You can always sell them if they don't fit properly

Are the seat covers for the front only?

Thought the rear seats in the sedan and sportsback where different when it comes to covers?

Difference being is that one is made for a sedan and one is made for a sportsback. Meaning that the rear parcel shelf is also different because of the different rear end shapes

If the seat covers are anything like the official Mitsubishi ones then they should fit any front seat in the range as they don't have sides so as not to interfere with the airbags.

If they are a custom made I'd be wary that they have pull apart seams for airbag deployment.

I want the genuine Neoprene ones but they are pricey at around $500 for a full set.
