Vette Seats in a 3rd Gen?

I did a small search and didn't get anything worthwhile, so I will pose the question.. Does anyone have any generation Corvette seats in their 3rd Gen? If so can u please post a few pics. I was curious about the seat frames compatibilty with our cars and the motors still bein useable. Plus they are much more comfy then our bus seats. Thanks all.

I have seen C5 seats installed and they look great. I know they are NOT a direct bolt it and quite a bit of modification had to be done to the frame to make it work.
Spend some time in this thread: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/inte...se-sexy-7.html tons of great pics and on page 7 there are pics of C4 vette seats installed in a 3rd gen.

Thanks IROC... I wonder how much modding had to be done to make them work. Will check the link.
