T Tops

Hey guys i know both of these questions problbaly have already been posted but the search is busted. Is there anyway to put older style glass T Tops on my 92? my plexi tops are beat bad and i found 4 perfect sets in the junkyard. Also im getting some leather seats out of a 2001 camaro, a guy told me the back seat needs modification, and some people told me hes wrong- can somone settle this for me? thanks

THe t's I have no idea.
However the 4th gen seats are a direct bolt in, no modifications what so ever. Unless you have a solid rear seat and the 4th gen seats are split rear seats then you need to make a few holes for everything to work properly.

Just had a good idea. Take your car to the j/y and ask the owner if you can try out the t's on your car. That would be the simplest way to find out if they will work or not.

the opening is the same, You MIGHT want to snag the little pieces that align the tops where the pins go into the pillars.

If you don't want your tops any more I might be interested...
