2006 GTO Seats in my '86 T/A

Fairly simple seat upgrade done in my T/A for anyone wanting to see what GTO seats looked like in a third gen. Had to drill two holes bigger at the front of the seat track to bolt my third gen tracks onto them and that was pretty much it. 2 bolts at the front of the tracks and the GTO original mounting studs with two nuts is all that holds the tracks on and was fairly simple install. Eventually I'll think about getting the GTO covered up. Overall I'm very pleased with the feel compared to 3rd/4th gen seats. They even feel more comfortable to sit in than 5th gen seats imo

Aside from them saying GTO they look good. How much headroom is there?

with the seats adjusted i have them sitting at damn near the same height as the 3rd gen seats, maybe an inch to an inch and a half higher.
