Went through this with my brother's 87 GTA recently. His seats had power EVERYTHING and weighed 22lb EACH more than a manual seat we got out of an 85 Camaro. We replaced both and dropped 40+lbs out of the car.

GTA seats do way more, however comparing manual seats from a camaro to power seats from a camaro is different the a GTA. A gta has lumbar and is probably one of the heaviest seats I have ever seen. Thing is heavy. However the power leather seats from the 95 that I have don't way much more than the cloth manual seats that I did have.

From what I understand the power cloth thirdgen seats weigh more than the power leather seats do from a 4th gen. Also the 4th gen seats can go back three inches more than a standard thirdgen manual seat, and 1" more than a thirdgen power seat.

Food for thought for us tall guys.
