I think the 1993 Nissan Altima clone...err "Malibu" came out around 1997 or 98, so maybe this is a leftover from that time period. (It's hard to believe that the Malibu has been clogging rental car lots for that long!)

does anyone kno what seats those are in the malibu? I like the buckets (if differnt material)

They look similar to the ones I have in mine, which are from a Dodge Omni.

That's funny, i used a set from an Omni too, at one time.

 

[tbird1986]

Must be before your time then Us "old farts" know what they are :lol:

The Omni is a subcompact car that was sold as a Dodge in the late 70's thru the 80's. It looks like a MK I VW Golf/Rabbit if that helps any. It shares the chassis with every other disposable FWD Chrysler of the 80's too. There were also two performance versions: The GLH and the GLHS. The GLHS was done by Shelby and used a 175hp intercooled, turbocharged 2.2.

Here is a Plymouth Horizon. It's an Omni with a different grille. (It was also sold as the Sunbeam Talbot in Europe, but that's another story)

My mom had a 79 Omni. Bought brand new, trouble with the wipers (day 1), then 3 years later transmission goes. Black Vinyl Seats, no A/C, AM radio, automatic.

I still can't believe there is someone who has never heard of an Omni. I can forgive never having heard of a Citroen Ami 6 or GS Birotor, but an Omni? Maybe I just need to get out more...

 

[Doober]

No, that person needs to get out more :lol:
