Question about Swaps

I have a 1982 Firebird base model with a 4 cylinder. This is basically my work car but I have been trying to figure out which parts fit the firebird. I keep seeing alot of stuff that looks like camaro parts can fit. Does anyone know what parts would fit? Mostly interior wise cuase the exterior and mechanics of the car are sound.

Re: Question about Swaps

Door panels, seats, and dash are different. Everything else swaps between the Camaro and Firebird. However, if you have two cars more then a couple years apart, the parts will probably be slightly different. For example, 1982 seat belts are 1982 specific. So are the door sills. The panels in the trunk are the same from 82-85, but then change for the trunk pull down. T-top cars have cut outs for the t-top bag anchors. Later cars have shoulder belts in the backseat instead of lap belts. And so on...

82-84 Firebird and Trans Am are all pretty much the same.
