I second that. I don't ever remember seeing a factory thirdgen T/A with the single seat back for the backseat. Those look just like my friend's fourthgen seats. His is a '94 btw.

Due to the head rest they look like they are from a ThirdGen.

Re: Help ID'ing these seats

If it helps they've got these funky headrests.



If you turn the **** behind the seatbelt loop the headrests move in and out.

Mine have those seats. I think they call them Ultima. My car is a 91 Trans Am. Mate of mine has them also in a 91 GTA.

Re: Help ID'ing these seats

Those are thirdgen GTA seats but they have the wrong seatbelt guides. Somebody used the guides from regular seats on them.

Thnx for the lead. It looks like this is the most likely model.

"AQ9 Lear Siegler Power Articulating Bucket (Driver & Passenger) "Ultima" 822 Med Dark Grey". Appears to have been available on all 3rd. gen GTA's.

Re: Help ID'ing these seats

They arent the siegler seats im familiar with. those have adjustable bolsters and lumbar. I have the manual version in my bird. I think those are just the reg GTA seats that all the GTAs had. I saw some exactly like it in an '89 the other day
