Default Firebird seat question

I'm on the lookout to update my Camaro seats and replace them with Firebird seats. I know that all LS1 Trans Ams had leather seats, so I'm looking for Firebird or Formula seats (I want to keep the cloth).

Did Pontiac make CLOTH seats that were power??? I can't find ANY!!! How about with LUMBAR??? I'd love to have power and lumbar, or just power, but can't seem to locate any. I've seen lots of manual ones, but just want to know if I need to settle for manual.

Anyone have these, have pictures of these? Thanks!

LT1 Trans Am seats were available in cloth. Look for those as they are a lot better seat than the regular seats. These seats have the power lumbar.

If you want the power seat and lumbar w/ cloth just buy the power seats and get the OE cloth skins.

FWIW LT1 T/A seats are not power. they have power lumbar and bolsters but the tracks are manual.

hmm. does it have the plastic accordian side bolster things? i think some base model T/A's with cloth got firebird seats so maybe thats why but i don't think they offered power tracks with the T/A AQ9 leather seats with side bolsters until 1998

My Formula had power drivers side cloth. No lumbar or side bolsters though. They do have the same styling at the TA's and were quite comfy on long trips.
