Re: Vett Seats?

im not sure if it would work, not seeing the seats, but could you use the mounting brackets from a suburban with buckets to mount them in your truck?

Re: Vett Seats?

without being familiar with the vette seats, maybe it will be possible to remove the bench seat from its frame, weld some tabs or brackets to the seat frame, then bolt the vette seats to that?

Re: Vett Seats?

my friend actually has(or atleast had) some vette seats in his blue truck (86 chevy swb)back when it was his daily driver, felt pretty comfortable, didn't really pay that much attention to how they were bolted in, but i haven't seen the truck in about a year and a half and now it has a 500+ cubic inch motor on running on alcohol, so i doubt they are still there, but i will ask
