    Seat bases

    What years and models of boxes front seat bases interchange?

    #2
    IIRC, the bases will bolt to the car from 79-89 or 90-11.
    Bolting to the seats should be the same all the way, but may require drilling holes on one end or the other if not. Just get 2 bolts (front or rear) into the seats from the tracks and then drill out and tap (if machine screw or just force the screw in if self-tapper/metal screw) the other two.

          I think so. Maybe wait for someone to confirm. It's been posted about several times on the forum, but I don't think we've ever made a sticky about it. At least I'm not finding one.

            I too am interested in this. Replaced the one on my 1st 90 with an earlier one and i had to use a shitload of washers to space it and make it level. Power connector was the same but worked backward. Would rather not do that again.
