These are 1994 Firebird seats on 1995 Lesabre power seat bases. They fit each other perfectly, but I had to fab some rear mounts to get the attitude I like.

can you adjust those seats? like pull it back or push them foward.
because i like them but im not to big and i will have to push the seats up.
 
There should be a thread here I believe with pictures of seats installed from a GTO. I'll probably go that route when I get a chance. My buddy has a GTO and the seats are so comfy

do you know whats its under by any chance? and yea they are comfy and look real nice.
 
Yes the racing style seats are fully adjustable & they fully recline, & they come in just about any color except dark red or Med blue, I put them in my cutlass & since then would not have any other seats & i have had many gbody factory buckets,but you need the wedge engineering brackets they make them for OEM bucket or bench,I had black leather viper seats in a 79 4speed malibu I had & they were awesome,wedge engineering will make gbody brackets for any bucket seat it takes two weeks best place to order them is thru Cipher Auto.
Good luck
 
Darbysan I love your interior, now u made me decide to go with buckets seat. Lol what kind of door panel is that? It looks very nice with your interior. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you to get that consol, bucket seats, and door panels done like that? I'm gonna go with a black pearl paint job and I was wanting to go with that same setup you have for the interior. Awesome job!!!! 10 THUMBS UP!!!!!!!

The door panel is from a Buick GN with the Concert Sound II speakers. Originally, the speaker's were covered with carpet, but I pulled that off and dyed the panel to match the rest of the interior ( Ebay for $185. They are hard to come by). The console is a 2004 Grand Prix. I bought it on Ebay for $35, with the shifter included ( Got a bargain!). The seats are from a '98 Acura CL. Ebay again for $100 + shipping. Seats took a little work on the brackets to make them work, but no welding. All was dyed with SEM Sandstone interior dye to match the seats. Another nice touch is a leather steering wheel cover that looks like it was factory. The one on the car is now 7 yrs old, and still looks like new. Check out Wheelskins.com.
 
I went with 1982 Bonneville buckets and a Grand Prix console.
The driver's seat is 6-way power and the passenger seat is manual.
The seats required minor modifications: I had to elongate the holes in the seat adjuster mounting brackets and I chose to remove the seat belt buckle anchors from the seat adjuster tracks (for tunnel/console clearance). I used the original seat belt buckles that are bolted to the tunnel. I also had to change the connector for the driver's power seat so the new seat would plug into the existing connector. (just transferred the connector from my old driver's seat to the new one)

The seats cost me $40 at a local JY and the console was about $150, plus SEM paint to match.

My car had a split bench, so it already had the inboard seat mounting brackets welded to the floor.
