Will 2004 Grand Prix front seats fit in a 87 Formula?
I have found two excellent leather power seats from a 2004 GP that I can get for $50 each. Does anyone know if they can be bolted into my 1987 Formula? They sure look more comfortable than the original 'bird seats.
Thanks
Thanks

I'm not sure, but I have used Sunbird/Cavalier seats on my Firebird tracks.
I have a feeling the GP seats won't be a direct bolt in with the existing tracks.
However, if you measure the mounting points of the GP seats you may find that they might bolt to your existing seat tracks with little to no modification.
If the GP seats aren't too wide, then it should be doable.
EDIT: With a little fabrication darn near anything is doable. LOL.

measure how wide they are and compare to what you've got... We don't have lots of side to side room.
I used seats from an 01 saturn sl1 or ls1 (2 door car with the 3rd door suicide style on drivers side). I had to make my own mounting brackets (and will soon be re-designing with the use of better seat sliders).
They are comfy, leather, look just right and the drivers side has lumbar adjustment controlled by a ****.
