5 gen seats in 4th gen

Whats happening everyone? Staying healthy I hope. Anyway its been awhile since Iv been on here as I had to exit the fbody family for kiddos. Anyway Im looking to get back in shortly and am just brainstorming. I briefly checked in the search option but didnt see any threads. I was wondering if anyone had any success in installing 5gen seats in the 4th gen ws6 t/a? I like the 4th gen seats but 5 gen, well its newer better looking and more comfortable(in general). Just throwing this out there. Thanks

5th gen seats, gto seats, and even c6 seats are too big for our cars. the c6 could work if u were under 5 foot 10. c5 seats are workable too, but our cars really have no head room height compared to 5th gens, which accompany the larger seat

I mean everyone to their own opinion, but it’s so much work to make seats are comically to large fit in these cars. They are nice seats in and of themselves, but in these cars it reminds me of an adult sitting on a child’s big wheel. Corbeu’s RRS line of seats has a style similar(Not the same) to a 5th gen Recaro seat and are under a $1000 for a pair. As far as aftermarket seats go they are on the shorter side of taller than stock seats than most. Brackets and sliders that bolt right into the 93-02 f cars are available as well. Sparco also makes some good seats that don’t break the bank as well.
