While the bottoms are very similar to the C5 & C6 it's the backs of the C7 seat that are too wide. You would have to perform some modifications to the seat back with accompanying upholstery mods.

If you're wanting the style, some online outlets have been selling C7-style sport seats and they come in a variety of single and two-tone color. They're not of the same quality as the OEM C7 seats, but look and function similarly while having C5/C6 application.
