rockfangd Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 hi everyone, i want to know if it is possible to put the interior seats from a 93 eighty eight into my 94 cutty. it is a nice leather interior both front seats are power and the back seats are like brand new. Quote
Crazy K Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 They are not a direct swap. w-body fits w-body only. but that would be nice if you make it work. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 personally, I think you're better off looking for a nice set of leather seats out of a w-body. That way they'll bolt right in no mods needed. Quote
rockfangd Posted September 26, 2006 Author Report Posted September 26, 2006 how much of a mod could it possibly be. these are in good shape Quote
rockfangd Posted September 27, 2006 Author Report Posted September 27, 2006 yeah well finding a good leather set is very difficult an also i wnt to do the swap because the pass track is power Quote
Crazy K Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 it i vewry rare, in fact.... I have only seen it once. 95 nd 96 regals have an option power passenger seats. Extemely rare. But I think you can retrofit a d/s track to mount on the passenger seat frame and make it work. the mounts to the floor will be the same. Quote
rockfangd Posted September 28, 2006 Author Report Posted September 28, 2006 i pilled measurements last night even though it was like 12 am and they seem to match but what would be an issue in switching out the whole seatsfrom the eigty eight, i think the tracks line up fine. i have never done the switch. the only thing that i did was convert my driver from a manual to a power. got the track out of a 90 cutty . but i have only seen one leather interior in a cutty around here and it was white and shitty  Quote
rockfangd Posted September 28, 2006 Author Report Posted September 28, 2006 oops pulled lol has anyone ever done this, someone has had to tried  Quote
rockfangd Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Posted October 3, 2006 i figure before i wast my time and temper i would get some opinions, lol, or maybe i will just keep the car Quote
Crazy K Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 I know that the dash of a 98 will be wider than our dash. you need to see if the seats are wider than the w-body seats, or even wider than the car! Quote
rockfangd Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Posted October 5, 2006 im not sure but the measurements are very close to what i have but i could be wrong Quote
buckethead Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 88s are big cars... wider than a w-body. I'd think the seats would be very tough to get in.... but I'm not saying don't try it... I'd love to see you make it work. It'd probably be a lot easier to get the front seats in than the back ones... I see the back seats being the major PITA. Quote

rockfangd Posted October 7, 2006 Author Report Posted October 7, 2006 what about just the tracks Quote

supreme_style21 Posted October 9, 2006 Report Posted October 9, 2006 Is the 88 the same body as the Bonneville? I had looked at Bonneville seats and they just simply would NOT fit. The tracks were slightly off, which could be solved with work, but the overall width of the seat itself was just too much.. you'd be crunched against the center console and you'd have to work pretty hard to close the door.

rockfangd Posted October 10, 2006 Author Report Posted October 10, 2006 thats what i figured. all i really want is the power track on the pass side for my cutty if anything, i have already converted the driver side to power, but many power seats have the switches in the door, i need them to be on the seat Quote
rockfangd Posted October 11, 2006 Author Report Posted October 11, 2006 but what about the bracket on the side for the recliner, so what your saying is try to put the drivers side track on the pass side Quote
rockfangd Posted October 12, 2006 Author Report Posted October 12, 2006 m nor worried about the switch all i dont want to deal with is track modifications Quote
rockfangd Posted October 16, 2006 Author Report Posted October 16, 2006 now upon looking at the seat tracks on the 88 here is 2 bolts in the rear on the tracks to mount to the floor there is only one on my cutty, is there any easy way around this, is there a vehicle whose track on the pass side is power and wll be compatibl in my cutty, as a direct fit Quote
