Fifth gen buckets

Been looking and can not find any info on 5th gen buckets.
Would like to swap mine and need to know if they will fit.
Not worried about fabrication, that is not an issue.
I just need to know if they will fit physically.
Width and height mainly.

Re: Fifth gen buckets

Hmmmm think I remember reading somewhere that they are too tall? Don't take my word on it though.

Re: Fifth gen buckets

I also remember a guy putting them in his vert and they looked very out of place. They are a very tall seat when bolted to our floors. If you want a good seat at a decent price I believe that ProCar by scat makes a seat designed for Corvettes and other vehicles with limited space interiors.

Re: Fifth gen buckets

They are too tall to fit properly. Been tried before. Google them and you will see a few people have tried them

Re: Fifth gen buckets

Had a 5th Gen, did not like the seats much. Was fast, that's about it...

3rd gen GTA articulating seats are very nice, especially the multi-adj driver's seat
