The top half of my hatch's rear seats are completely thrashed and I saw some top halves in amazing condition for sale.
The problem is that they are out of a coupe, they look pretty much just like my hatches top halves. Will they fit?

Yes.
Sr5 and gts seat top halfs won't swap though.

I guess the question is, are you looking to replace the entire seat(s) out? Or are you asking whether you can swap the top halves from one to another?

According to DC's post, it does not sound like it will swap.

He asked if the seat top halves would swap from a coupe to a hatch. I said yes, as long as it's going from a gts to gts, or sr5 to sr5 (gts and sr5 seat tops are different shapes).

Thats where things get tricky, It's a GTS conversion and everything interior was half assed. So I don't know if I have GTS rear seats or not. The bottom and top are also two different colors. lol

GTS tops:

SR5 tops:

Note the different shape of the seat tops and rear door panels/armrests. You can't use sr5 seat tops with gts panels. Gts seat tops might work with sr5 panels, but it would look like ****.
