swapping cutlass sedan AQ9 seat skins/cushions with GP coupe Seat frame?

[Drummer]

  I found a 92 cutlass international with AQ9 seats that are in decent condition but they're from a sedan, and since GP coupe AQ9 seats are more prevalent here than Cutlass seats can i just swap the skins/cushions to the GP seat frame?

I would think so, just don't know how well the shape will line up to the leather

[Crazy K]

possibly yes. 

 

but...  Coupe and sedan seats are the same seat, except for the tilt mechanism, meaning you should likely only have to change that.  It is a L shaped hinge assembly on the outer side of the seat included the tilt mechanism and hooks on with 4 bolts.  However, because you are looking at AQ9 seats, you may have the trim parts around the lever that need changed... the lever stick through the upholstery on non-AQ9 seats.

 

good luck!

sweet thanks for the tip.  Can I use any tilt mechanism or does it have to be from an AQ9 coupe seat?

[Crazy K]

unknown.  sorry!

Do you know what years are the same as my '93 please ?

Is there any difference in Regular Cutlass leather rear buckets and AQ9 rear buckets?

I think I would like to have tilt mechanism I my 4 door, I would keep them. Which seats are most comfortable for long trips from all w bodies?

[Drummer]

Definatly the AQ9 is perfect for long trips

Anyone have set?

There was a set of quads in a yard near me last time I was there. Burgundy and in rough shape.

Think cushions would be good?

Think cushions would be good?

I'll see if I can check on them.

Here are the photos I took last summer. I didn't ask the price because they are not graphite, in excellent shape and reupholstering is too expensive, but I'll check.

That center arm rest looks good! Does that car have HUD?

[George1]

I have the HUD. The HUD switch was broken, but had the parts I needed to fix mine.

[pshojo]

those actually are not too bad shape.  I wonder what condition the cushions are in, being open to elements.  My car seats currently smell dusty, no matter how many times i clean them.  I guess that comes with a car from dusty Texas?
