Do these seats fit?

Of course they say universal, how else could they sell them?
Anybody know?

You'll need to modify. Hands down. Universal doesn't make it a direct bolt in.

They will fit if they sell the correct seat brackets. For instance when you buy seats from seat source (corbeau, flofit, recaro) you than have to purchase the brackets for your application. (82-92 Camaro for instance) Brackets are never cheap.

Allright, that makes sense.. Anybody tell by looking the brand of the seats I linked to?
Or, for that matter, who sells Camaro type seats? I've never been one who really like the typical Corbeau seat, the ultra-race looking seats... I like the more typical seats, and even the ones like I listed... Anybody know of a place that sells seats like I'm thinking of?
EDIT: NEvermind, they are JDM racing...

also don't forget even when you buy the proper brackets they still require modification most of the time.
