No they don't fit.
Front ones you may be able to mount in there, but some bracket modding would be required. The rear ones are simply too big.

In all honesty tho, 4th gen front seats are so much sexier. I don't know why you would want to replace them with 5th gen seats...

The fronts will fit perfectly fine. Rears won't.

The 4th gen has more sporty seats. I know the 4th gens were made by Recaro. Doubt the 5th Gens are. The 5th Gen seats lack support.

If you just want new seats because your old fabric is torn or stained there is not reason to ditch the seat itself... There is a seller that on eBay that carries 100% real black leather replacements for the factory seat cover. You just remove the fabric from the foam and stretch the pre-sewn leather pieces over the seat. These are custom designed specifically for the 4th gen seats. They are kinda pricey but not anymore than someone would charge locally to make the same thing. I love my seats and see no reason to shell out all the money and deal with the headaches of installing after market seats. They are sold in a full four seat set, front and back.
