found perfect seats for blazer, just need to find some now...

[cstanley]

maybe someone can help? they are Saab 9-3 Convertible seats, 2004-current model. These seats are perfect for a blazer! I investigated them while my saab was in for routine service yesterday, and since then i've searched exhaustively for a set, to no avail.

Does anyone work at or near a foreign auto salvage place? any Ideas? A brand new set from the dealer's parts inventory would run about $6k! Does anyone work for a GM parts counter that could advise me?

I'll see if I can find pics. The reason they are perfect is because they have integrated 3-point seat belts. They are typically heated. The fold-forward release lever is on the top, near the seat belt, and when you release it forward far enough the motorized seat moves forward (or back) on its tracks. it's very cool, comfortable, and what better seats to go into a convertible than ones from a convertible!

ok, found some. very difficult to see, but there is a silver lever behind the top seat belt mount that flips the seat forward and then it slides forward for rear access. I'd like to find a set that i can reupholster in original style houndstooth material, and remove the head rests. not sure if i can come up with a set, though.
