   Might be too wide, i bought some of the nicest recaro seats on the planet from the evo 9 but they were too wide. That pissed me off.
   
   With the scoob being a similar car you might have the same prob. If not just get some subframes welded up, any garage can nock up a set quite easy. Or they can adapt subframes to fit the saxo for a different seat to fit.
