        the front corners are different. They are rounded on a 4-door so that when the back door is open it rounds to the leading edge of the seat. Here's a pic of mine.

            Found this out the hard way.

            gonna have to make some black leather panneling or something to go in the corners cause you can see where the carpet ends. on the ones i put in my 2dr.

                    The ski hole/arm rest thing was an option in general, 2 door or 4 door.

                      Ah.
                      Well i bought a rear seat for my 2dr and it fits small in the bottom part cause of the curve.

                      currently brainstorming on how to make it work :) oh well.

                          I could do that.. Or i could deal with it since for the past 8 months i've had a cloth seat with huge holes in it, and no one rides in my back seat anyway?
