I don't know if any "regular" thirdgen verts have been equipped with "PMD" viscount seats, but there have been a few knight rider convertibles so equipped
here is a link to one such car

K.I.T.T. Convertible

I'm sure if someone else has equipped their car with the seats they can post a pic. hope this helps to give you an idea what it might look like.

"PMD" viscount seats were standard equipment in 1982 Trans Am's except Recaro editions, and Firebird SE's
they were also optional equipment on all Firebirds in 82 and 83. they were no longer offered in 1984.
There have been versions of these seats found in some other Pontiac cars of the era (Grand Prix, ETC..)

They are pretty scarce because they were (mostly) optional equipment, and are pretty popular with Knight Rider replica builders because they were the seats used on the car in the show.

As to how much they are worth, they can be worth a bit, but it really depends how much you can get somone to pay.
You could check ebay for current prices
I got mine for cheap, found them in a junkyard for $20 each.

I have seen a few others verts with those seats but they have all been replicas of that car, so they look basically the same, black with tan.

I guess it's not too common to see these in convertibles, but It looks good

Thanks, they do get a lot of positive feedback! The black and red seems to go over great.
