Floor Pan same from 82-97?

Hi Guys,

I was searching around the internet and stumbled upon someone that believed the floor pans were the same for 3rd and some (up to 97) 4th gen Camaros...

Is there any truth to this? I need a floor pan on the drivers side for my 95 and no one sells reproduction floor pans for 4th gen Camaros...

Anyone had this issue before?

Thanks!

It isn't true. They look similar but they are indeed different.

That's the way to go. This way you keep all the factory contours in the floor pan. I can't stand it when I see plain sheet metal just welded in place. It works I guess but it isn't the right way to do things. A hack job repair at best.
