They look a lot like the 4th gen Camaro ones that were in my old 92 RS.

Def not 4th gen seats. They look "almost" like the 91-92 Grey RS seats you could get. But something looks a little "off". They might be but im not sure they just look a tad different. They have got to be from a third gen though.

If the pics are correct on Hawks, they seem to be 82-84 Firebird seats. Can anybody verify this? Would my seats be the Silver? http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/in...ROD&ProdID=677

Slick71ss those do look like '82-'85 high back seats used mostly in the Camaro but also found in some Firebirds.Do the back seats have the same piping and pattern as the front seats?I have to agree to on them not being from a 4th Gen.Contact Hawks and ask if they have material samples they could send you.

Cause im at junkyards almost every weekend. I also have 00' SS seats in my car and 94' z28 seats in my gf's car. They did not use that pattern or style. 93-96 had a style then 97-02 had another look.
Slick71ss - Coming back to my memory those seats could be early style. I seem to remember seeing some black vinyl seats in that design.

Yes those are the 82-85 firebird base seats,I have only seen them in vinyl,So I'm thinking those seats have been recovered before in the past.slick71ss If your restoring your car back to original condition.I would dump those and just get the correct and VERY common seats with the solid adjustable headrest started in 83-92.IMO keeping those base seats will make it look like a base car and non of us like that .

I'm not restoring the car back to original. I just picked this car up to use as a summer daily driver. To be honest, I don't care what kind of seats are in it, I just want them to match colorwise with the interior. I'm trying to keep the cost down, and I'm replacing the headliner, visors, sail panels, front carpet, and have to either recover the seats or find replacements at a good price. This is just an 86 LG4 car, so it's not worth a whole lot.
