Help: Seats & Steering wheel?

I am looking at putting 4th generation seats into my 91 rs, i am wondering if anyone knows if you sit higher, i know i need the seat to sit leaning back already(doesnt help that 1 more click, my recliner just falls, friken recalls....) and my head is still pretty close to my t-tops, anyone have an answer? im not afraid to modify at all, if i need to switch the slider or rails,
and 2nd question, i am looking for a steering wheel, dont have alot of money, need a horn and new steering wheel, any suggestions, red and black interior, and i am in the florida sun and heat, thank you!

any suggestions?

Get electric seats you can raise and lower, tilt, and move them forward and back. I picked up a set on Ebay a few years ago out of an 2002 firebird. I love them they have adjustable lumbar and bolsters.

I just picked up a set too. Haven't put them in yet. Where did you jump power for the seatss? Did you run them off the fuse block?
