Corvette Seats In a 4th gen f-body

Does anyone know if it's possible to put vette seats in a 4th gen f-body. I'm talking mainly about C5 vettes.

Tnx for da info

I've often thought about that too. I think they would look great. I bet it would'nt be too hard to put them in.

Well, I don't know anyone with a C5 vette, so this weekend I'll head out to a scrap yeard to get the measurements. I would'nt be surprised if there wasn't much differences in the sizes. The only thing that worried me was that the seats in the vette look wider than the ones in the F-body.

My mom had a 97 C5 and the seats looked and felt about the same. You guys know GM uses the same parts for most of their vehicles. I bet they bolt right in.

I heard C5 seats are not a direct bolt iin, but can be made to fit with some work. I don't have the details, but this topic came up a while ago

btw, the vert is bad A$$ with those seats

If a seat fits an '82 Camaro, it will also fit a 2002 Camaro. All 3rd and 4th Gen F-body seats are interchangeable. Those '88 to '93 (?) Corvette sport seats are great looking seats!
