I know a few guys that have 4th Gen seats in 2nd Gen Camaros/Firebirds... so, I'm sure they'll fit in there.
The seat tracks are most likely VERY similar.

I remember reading somewhere that you'll have to modify one of the mounts to accomodate the electric seat motor.

That has to be in the top 5 most frequently asked questions....and it has to also be one of the top 5 interior modifcations on these cars. But I guess to answer you question...they fit absolutely with no modification whatsoever they're simply a direct bolt in. It doesn't hurt to search first before posting a question...just some advice =)

It all depends on how much blinker fluid you have in your car before you do the swap.....

I topped off my blinker fluid before the swap and it took me 17 hours........

If you are an amateur, I suggest a professional installation.....

Don't take my word for it....

Yup, Direct bolt in, I have 99 T/A Seats in my 86 ROC. Big improvement. Only thing I had to do was run power wire and 2 pieces of tubing for the driver side lumbar cause the pumps are under the passenger seat.
