My cutlass had 60/40 split seats from the factory. I found a set of bucket seats, council, and shifter out of a Monte Carlo locally for a $100. Are they are direct bolt in from the 60/40? If not what pieces do I need to get them installed including the council? thanks.

Not to be a human spell check, but the word is console, not council. They both mean two different things.

..the bucket seats will bolt in. The console requires a mounting bracket. You might be able to go back and cut it out of the donor car, or fab your own.

I was most concerned about the seats. There was no donor car, the guy had the parts sitting in his basement. I will just fab a mount for the console, not that big of a deal. Thanks.

There's actually 3 brackets that hold the console & shifter in place. Shouldn't be that hard to find in a junkyard. Sounds like a good buy.
