He's right, they are fixed. However you can one from a EDM impreza and fit them to yours. Then you hust need to re-ulphoster to match the interior.

Yeah but wouldn't that be a hassle to unbolt and take the seat out everytime you need to store something long into the boot?

Smile take em out

A few bolts and lift. U should have direct access after that from the car to the boot, although its still small, thinking of buying a dog or just 4 skis.

Oh read http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=461906 we went in the hills this weekend. Guess mines the blue RA then.

They'll fit - I've carried wheels behind me on back seat - cover back seats with old sheets and duvet for padding and put wheels there.

Or 2 in boot if you take out space-saver?
