Interiors the same through the years?

Would the seats in this 1988 be the same as the ones used in a 1991 TA?

Those are 4th gen seats, so they're not the same as anything 82-92.

NowhereFast is correct. Those are 4thgen Firebird seats; colors are different than 3rdgens too. They're a non-articulating, fully-upholstered version of the 3rdgen GTA seats. They're nice.

Any seat out of a 82-02 F-body will bolt right into your car, however the material and colors did change over the years. Those are 4th gen firebird seats in there currently though.
