Default Anyone put GTO seats in a Camaro?

I've got 185k on my car and the stock leather is torn to hell. Been eyeing a set of GTO seats but I'm not sure if they'll fit. Has anyone undertaken this one?

Looking at C5 Z06 seats and BMW M3 seats, too. Any advice? I don't wanna lose my power seats, and heated would always be nice.

Been discussed many times. They are too wide to fit in the F-body. I don't know about Z06 or M3 seats though. They would both of course be a custom application. Hell for as much as those will probably cost, you could just have yours recovered in a way that you would like.

BMW seats sit too high.. so do the GTO seats, plus the GTO seats are too wide.. your best bet is the Corvette seats

Some people perfer Firebird seats over Camaro seats. That might be the easiest way for you to upgrade.

That's what I was going to suggest as an alternative, Arizens. http://www.arizenracingsports.com/pa...n/CTGY/CAMPICS
