Here they are in case anyone was interested. I think they look nice.

Those look exactly like the ones for sale, but the ones I'm looking at aren't anywhere near that expensive.

They are hard as a rock but they are cool looking. I had a cloth set years ago when the 9C3 Lumina came out

I think it was a 98

How hard? My brother has had a number of GTI golfs over the years, and they have factory Recaro seats in them, they're hard, but they're so supportive that you don't really notice it.

What an odd combo, Recaro's in a Lumina and in a 9C3 package makes it even weirder IMO.

I think only the 9C3 could get the Recaro bucket seats, don't think it was an option you could get on a lumina without the cop car package.

So late 80's and early 90's "A" bodies and cars like olds 88's and buick park avenues share seat tracks with G bodies

Do lumina W bodies also share the seat track mount locations?

That would be good information to have, whether it's a bolt in deal or if you need to swap the tracks. My GN has a power driver seat that I actually would prefer to replace with manual adjustable, if I have to swap tracks I'll have to find a manual set of tracks for the one seat.

Greetings; Pictures are worth 1000's of words? Anyway I ordered these seats about 40 years ago this month! They arrived before the car & sat in the living room until the Bronze Brick appeared. Point being they didn't change much over the years & still maybe my favorite seats? Ok maybe the GuTOo seats are better, but not by much. Ole' Bob.

Bob,
Those seats are a vast improvement over what Malibus' came with originally. Even the factory buckets didn't recline and were not very comfortable.

They are hard no cushion at all

The tranks that came in the Lumina where to low for the Malibu

Just one follow up question, were they too low to work, or too low for your liking? I wouldn't mind the seat being a little lower to gain a little head room.

I dont remember that

Okay, thanks anyway. For what the guy is asking for them, I may buy them just to try it. Should be able to turn around and resell them and break even at least if I don't like them.
