Rear seats from a monte. will the fit a lumina?

[1979lee]

well i just replaced the front seats in my 98 lumina. (see pic)

they sit real nice, im not going to get the console. i like the space that i now have between the seats.

the car was a 95 Z34 monte

carlo 3.4 dohc with 140k.

clean car till the last owner....(as always).

well i was thinking of getting the rear seats too, but they fold down , will the work in my lumina? its the top seat im worried about, the bottom looks the same.

 

thanks guys

your factory seats don't fold down? other than the former police luminas, i don't think i've ever seen a 1.5 that didn't have a folding rear seat.

nope no fold down. ive never seen a lumina with the fold down seats. thats why i was wondering if the monte rears will fit my 98 4door lumi.

well, damn.... i just went through and looked at the interiors of a dozen or so 1.5 luminas on cars.com with various interiors..... no folding seatback.

 

i could have sworn that the luminas got that as well, but i guess not.

 

from the pictures i saw, i really don't know if they would work. if you have a lumina and a monte in a junkyard near each other, you could always test it out that way, i think it's ~8 or less bolts holding it all in?

its ok, no luminia's got em, they should have , but didnt.....

 

yes the 96 lumina i got my dual pipes off of is right next to the 95 monte with the seats, so ill just have to try'em out on it.

 

thanks friend:thumbsup:

People have installed them but I know they are slightly skinnier than the Lumina rears so they dont match up to the interior that well

so are they a simple swap? i dont mind if they dont match up that well.

ive attached 2 pics, the 1st is what the seats look like, the match the fronts. (pic is of a lumina, the car i want the seats from is a monte)

the second pic, is what my seats look like now, a missmatch.( thats not my car in the pic) thanks. id like to go get the seats on friday. there too nice to miss. and i like to have the fold down's in my lumina
