HELLO,, I got the urge to replace my worn out [255,000 mile] seats and im trying to decide if i should get one;s out of a camaro/firebird or use possable after market.-I saw a good deal on a set from a 2002 camaro that are black cloth, but my 1982 has marroon cloth. - any oppion,, on how it may look. ?? Also i know it must of been posted a million times, but im new to inter mods, but is a 4 th gen a exact bolt in ??? or is there mods to do.

 

i would spend the bucks - about 500 - and get some nice leather ones - both front seats power - with lumbar support.
you will have to get the connection harness - 115 but it will be worth it. and they are available in every color and you can bolt them right in. harness part number the same for all power seats made by gm - will have to get them out of tenn - but you order them from gmpartsdirect.com part number 12177553

i got fb seats from a 2002 and they are great. both power - only the drivers slides on the tracks with power but the passenger is full power except for that - and both have lumbar support. that means a connection hose, as the compressor is in the passenger seat.
but that is just me.

good luck - i got mine from e-bay and there is probably a yard around you where you can get them. but make sure both are power - go first class, none of that manual crap.

 

thanks,,, guess what . I go and pick up my new 2002 firbird,leather power seats on saturday.-[front and rear]-- Got them for 410.00, Sounded like good deal. And they have lumbar control.--And on that harness ?? is that what i def need,? - as of now i do have power seat on drivers side, but will i still need it. , and/or does it then plug into my existing wire harness ???

 

sorry been away.
the harness will let the lumbar supports work. i prefer to use the factory stuff because its plug and play, no messy do it yourself wiring. gm used the same harness for every set of power seats with lumbar supports. the vacumme fitting are a problem so using the factory ones is always a good idea. the fittings move air from the passenger seat to the drivers.
and yes, the harness connects the two seats so power comes from the fuse box to the drivers seat and then splits off to the passenger seat - no need for running two sets of power wires from the fuse box.

if you look you will see that you can make your own harness but for 100 bucks you have one that you know will fit.

 

yes got my seats,,, but oh no,, the pass seat frame is a little bent, so looks like ill have to take apart and fix. --On the vac lines for lumbar,, is the harness just for feed from pass seat to drivers ?? as im not up on these, so motor under pass is seat is just vacu supply . right ?

 

yes,, i defin will have to fix my passenger seat frame [bent]-- I think i jumped the gun on the purchase tho,, My interior color is mostly maroon color, and i bought black leather seats. Has anyone gone with this combo of colors and could you post pics ??? - Im afraid the black leather ones i bought will now look like crap

 

These cars have a fair amount of black in them anyway, should look fine. I had to replace me headliner and couldn't find red material to match, went with black. Looks fine. Might round up a set of black arm rests/door pulls for the doors? y

 

Thanks,, tom3,, love the oppion.-as my car is put away in storage and trying to picture seats in car is hard.-My door pulls are black, and head liner and carpet is maroon, - I had planed on replacing head liner so now im unsure of black or the orig maroon ???? - Im unsure. I GUESS IF I CHANGE TO BLACK HEADLINER I SHOULD THEN go with the black panels ?????
