As the weather gets nicer here, my project comes closer to starting. I need some advice on seat choices. I know that there are a few threads out there that have a varity of choices, but honestly, the search function leaves so many hits, that I couldn't find anything that was really any help.
So here's the heart of the matter. I love the Fiero seats, there are plenty of options for colors and style of seatcovers that look OEM, and the console is something I am very used to as far as placement of items is concerned. Has anyne used them or a modified console. Also, I found plenty of choices for the front, but pickings seem to be slim with the back seats options. I was hoping to find a newer rear seat that has a nice sporty look with a fold down arm rest. Any suggestions.
Thanks all,

Mike

Thanks Bro,
Yeah, I had to come up with a plan B after I lost the parts car I needed. And things have been super busy at work, crime never stops. I'm getting really close to having all the parts I want to incorporate into the project the seats are really all I have to figure out. That, and the shifter. I'm really leaning towoard a his & hers shifter so I can have the control I want and the wife can still drive it if needs be. Plus, I won't have to scramble to find parts for a manual swap. I'll shoot you my number and appreciate the help. My biggest concern is that the newer cars are so much smaller inside, that I have fitment concerns. Thanks, really. I haven't even been to the yard in over 2 months. I think I'm going into withdrawl.

Thanks Bro. I really need to pull the rear seats and measure, but I'm waiting for some time to get to my buddy's house where the real project car is. I have been holding out on everyone, but to tell the truth, this GP isn't the one getting all the goodies.
I have a second "secret" project that is going to rock socks. My driver is just getting the rear frame rails done and having the interior redone. The other car is getting the full treatment.
MUHAHAHAHAHAAAAA......
