I think JZA is correct, too wide. You might be able to make a center console to allow for the extra wideness.

Actually, it might depend on what Cadillac they are coming from. A Cimeron might have the same seat width, an Eldo is definately wider. Matter of fact my dad's 92 Eldo has wider seats than my 90 Riv.

Why does everyone always capitalize all the letters of my username? It was supposed to be Jaz, but that was already taken on the old board (before the switch to UBB). Oh, well. Just wondering..

I was going to say what okfoz said...I'll bet you could bolt Cimmaron seats onto your seat tracks with no problem....except one big one.

Besides the fact that you're definitely not going to find any Cadillac rear seats to fit your car....your front seats MUST come from a 2-door car, or a pickup truck. Otherwise, they won't fold forward for rear seat access.

Hey Jza, I never knew that's what your name meant. It always makes me thing of Rza and Gza from the Wu-Tang Clan.
