Well, sitting on my 2004 Ion's seats was extremely uncomfortable, so I started looking for something to fix this. I figured replacing the seats period would be the best option. The seats I wanted were the recaro's from the stock Saturn Ion Redline. Unfortunately, no one with a redline wants to sell their seats, so I settled, for now at least, on a set of 2006 Ion 3 seats. The design of the seats (padding wise) is completely different, but the hookups for the car are the same. The seats are comfier, but have sensors and hookups for a 2 stage airbag.... which my 2004 doesn't have.
To remove the seats, move the front seats to the farthest forward position and remove the 2 bolts there on the rails. disconnect the clip for the seat belt buckle sensor. Then move the seat all the way back. Tilt it forward and pull up. The seat should come right out (the front is held in by front hook like things on the front of the rails).
I'll have matching rears soon, and dark gray panels. Stay tuned!
