got a guy selling some nice leather seats from a 2002 camaro,

will the bolt right up to my 90 iroc?

 

Yes.

 

hmmm im getting conflicting opinions from other sources

 

i wouldnt bother asking but id have to drive quite a ways to get them

 

Nope.....Not at all. That is why hundreds of us already have them bolted in......

Please use the to find your answers, rather than adding to the board size. The answer already exists thousands times over, on the boards. No need to ask.

 

What they said but they are taller thats why i dont have a set

 

You mean the 3rd gens are taller, & the 4th gen seats sit lower.

At 6'5", trust me.......They are lower.

 

using which brackets?

 

they should just bolt right in. its all personal preferance.

 

No, they don't fit.







Actually the electric seats sit higher and they feel kind of weird even though I'm short. It's probably a good idea to find some manual tracks if they're electric. Mine are from a '95 I believe. I also gave away a set of manual tracks to someone else in a similar situation except they needed them more than I did.

 

4th gen seats on 4th gen brackets. I've done this on every one of my 3rd gens & sat lower every time.

 

Then the thousands of us will 4th gens seats, much be performing some magic.....They are 100% bolt-in.

 

Lol, I guess sarcasm doesn't apply even if several pictures are posted along with clearly showing that they do indeed fit.

BTW, I'm assuming every time you did this you were using manual brackets, and not electric seats.

 

I've never seen the point in electric seats. I sir down the FIRST time I get the car.....

Slide it back 100%.....

Done!

Even when I've had cars that came with electric seats, they only got moved ONCE.

 

I've got Electric 4th gen seats in my 84 Firebird from a 2000 T/A. Used the 4th gen brackets. The bolt holes lined up 100%. Only thing I had to do was fix the wiring to work with the drivers side seat. Like Stephen said though, I've moved it exactly once...when i first sat in it. The 4th gen seats do sit lower in the car than the third gen ones and are SOOOOO much more comfortable. If you do a search on the boards you'll find probably 1000 threads and posts about people who have already done this conversion.

 

In the weight reduction thread, they say 4th gen seats with 3rd gen sliders is a noticeably lighter combo.....

 

That's interesting. Mine are from a '95 so there must be a difference in height between the years. I agree, there is no going back as far as comfort goes.

 

So what do you guys do about the rear seat? Or do those swap too? I know, search...but this threads already open.

 

Direct fit. Bottom cushions about 1"-2" narrower. So if really look at the sides, you'll notice the tiny gaps between the cushions & tunnel/plastic panels. Difference isn't worth worrying about.

But if you have & want to keep the split rear seat back cushions, 4th gens never came with those. So you might not want to replace the rear seats. I didn't. because I kept my split rears.

 

So one big cushion as opposed to two inserts? I'm picking up my TransAm Monday and planning ahead as to what I'm gonna be doing....maybe pick up the seats while I'm out.
Thanks man

 

No.

On 3rd & 4th gens, the bottom cushions are 2 individual ones.

The BACK part, what your back leans against, is what I was referring to. Some 3rd gens had a single wide, fold down back, some had a 2-piece, fold down cushion. Mine has the 2-piece, so I just left the rear seats alone.

 

Ah, thanks for clearing that up. I just don't want to swap out the front seats and have different upholstery front and back.
Guess it's time to start searching "most popular mods" and "common problems".
