Hi, I just recently purchases a 92 camaro rs, with all manual seats that are pretty torn up. I want to get fourth gen seats and the ones I am looking at has a power drivers seat. Will this work in my car, if not is there something I can do to make it work?
Welcom to tgo. Yes they will bolt right on and sometimes you may get lucky and your car was wired for this. Check under the carpet if not run yourself some hotwires under the seat just as you would run to anyother aftermarket power option.
Also up top in the red bar you can do a search. Good luck
i just did this like two days ago ill i did was unbolt the 4 bolts of the 4th gen seats and put my original one on from my thirdgen seat and there you go thats all i did fits perfect no mods thats easy and you dont have to worry about wiring it up
do you still have your original seats? if you do the track your original seat is it a manual seat if it is then you can take your manual track off and put it on the 4th gen seat and now youll have a manual track driver seat. hope it cleared it up for u
It's easy to wire up a power driver's seat. All it takes is a power wire and a ground wire. The ground wire just runs to the frame under the seat so that's really easy. Then all you need to do is find a power source under the dash and run a wire to the seat track. Even if you didn't get a harness with the seats it's very easy to wire it up and make it work.
when you take off the tracks for the 4th gen it all comes off just the seat will be there and when you put the 3rd gne track on the forth gen seat youll have a manual seat just like the one in your car now
btw if you want to run the wires on the power i would run a breaker fuse just in case something pushes on the switched and you dont go frying up the wires or worse cause a short and not hard at all but thats when you start hearing horror stories on cars burning down not trying to scare you from doing it just making sure it gets done right
Both of my thirdgens, 86 and 92 left the factory non power seats but had the wiring under the drivers side seat. All I had to do was install the power seat on the previous studs, bolt them down and pull the power plug from under the carpet and plug it in. GM prepared all of the cars for power just in case.

They must have forgot mine at the factory. I would have thought they would have left that wire considering my option package was one away from being fully loaded.
