can you show me the bracket you made...if you had to make one
i did the same thing DIRTYWHITEBOY did i removed the tracks from a gbody 60/40 seat and put them on the firebird seats
 
yea we didnt have enough stuff for the transfer so imma keep bench for a while
 
i have a bench with a floorshift in my cutty, check out my album for pics.....I like the combo but here lately i've been thinking about switching to buckets, still not quite sure yet :blam:
 
I switched the stock split bench to these buckets:

Funny thing is I founnd these seats on my local Craigslist and they match my interior. Turns out a guy pulled them from a rod he had. I got the both for $30.00 🙂
 
If you can find a bench seat out of a Citation,it has the cut out curve in the middle just like the G-body standard shifts had.Mine had the bench standard shift option,and I switched it to a 40/60 seat and stupid me threw out the old seat.
But a Citation is almost identical.I know,it's almost as hard to find a Citation as a G-body in a junkyard anymore.
The Elcamino store sells the floor brackets for the bucket conversion also.
