Will these seats fit and what is needed to make them fit?

TPI TERR · 10-30-2009, 03:30 PM

seen them on 4thgens

Ethan91 · 10-30-2009, 03:33 PM

Thats good news, then I'd say they would fit in a thirdgen with a tad bit of work.

These look very much like the seats I've got in my G8. GM's Holden division definitely knows how to make a nice looking, comfortable seat. Worlds of difference from my 3rd gen's.

I love my GTO seats (in my GTO, not 3rd Gen)

I think you just need to get a custom bracket made for them to fit, and will have to do some wire trickery. Just a word to the wise: these things are heavy. They are around 65 lbs a piece.

So much for my weight reduction, gotta be comfortable though

I should be able to make them work. Its between 4thgen Camaro/Trans am seats, racing seats, and these. So many options, so little brain capacity lol.

Well, they sure as Hell are comfortable.

Like I said, they are heavy. The seat motors are on the slow side, as well.

However, they are great seats for parking your *** in.

Any plans on getting rid of the "GTO" stitching? Or are you going to cross it out and write "Z28" on top with a Sharpie? lol

I'd get a junkyard set and have them recovered

I've got a 2005 GTO. So I know how comfortable those seats are. I've also had third gen and fourth gen cars. The GTO seats are hands down some of the most comfortable vehicle seats out there.

just put the 3rd gen seat rails on them. Unless you want to make new holes on your floor pan for the GTO rails...
