    Sorry for the vague response...was in a bad mood.The fronts are very comfy and offer much more legroom.And the rears fit,but not without a lil teweaking here and there.

    To me I looks like the back bottom seat going to have to be rased to fill in the gap between the bottom and back of the seat.

    Actually there is a gap,but its on either side of the seat back,and not between the top/bottom.

    I dont mind raising them up, I was jsut wondering if the bolt holes line up.
    I have a buddy with a 90'ish Plymouth laser with good interior. may try to get the junk off of him. I have a POS computer he wants, and his car motor is trash so.... i'll see what i can do

    Hello look at the link in the post.

    Yes i used the seat tracks, had to drill a few holes and made a couple of spacers out of 1" square stock an they fit nicely.

    They look good I would not have thought that the rear would fit like it did but they look good.I plan on using some 1/4 plate to be able to use the stock holes.I found the car has the stock spots for the buckets so I will drill those out and mount the seats to the plate to the car.I also plan on using unasrtut for the spacer if needed.That way I won't have to drill it I can just put the bolt through it.

    Later from the 4door guy
