other types of seats

Pickings are getting kind of slim at the local JY. There hasnt been a new camaro/firebird come in in almost 2 months. I am going to need to pick up a driver seat in the near future for temporary usage while I try to fix my stock seats. What other cars (besides camaro/firebird) will the driver seats bolt into our cars with minimal to no modification? thanx in advance.

Re: other types of seats

Cavaliers, Sunbirds, Olds Calais are similar. You probably will have to change out your seat tracks. I want to get a set of leather seats out of 2000ish Grand Prix.

4th gen seats are pretty common at junkyards. Also you can tear a passenger 3rd gen seat apart and tranfer it all over to drivers seat. Thats what I did on mine

Re: other types of seats

I used front seats out of an 82-84 dodge rampage for a couple years before I found a good pair of 4thgen seats. Mounted them to the tracks from my camaro. They were a bit tight on the width, but they were really comfortable. No real side bolstering though, so I slid around on them a bit when taking corners at high speeds. I'd bet seats from a dodge Daytona would fit too.
