Default 4th gen seats

did they make cloth seats with power? lumbar? did the sewing pattern change between years? headrest change? im looking for some gray cloth seats from a 4th gen for my 2nd gen. i really like the looks of the power/lumbar leather seats in the t/a but would like them in cloth instead.
thanx joel

Only the Camaro seats had the option for cloth, which could be powered (I have them in my Z). But the TA seats were not offered in cloth, only leather. Wait, I know some of the Formulas came with cloth, so you might check into some of those seats.

Formulas have cloth seats.
The driver's seat is power, the passenger's seat is manual.
The cloth seats do not have the inflatable lumbar.
Only the leather optional seats had the inflatable lumbar.

You might be able to get an apolsterer to make cloth covers for the leather ones with the inflatable lumber. I dont mean covers that go over the leather, i mean replacement apolstry (you pull off the leather and replace it with the custom cloth).

What about the seats in the GTO, they are much better. I think they are leather only, but you can probably get an aplosterer to make custom covers for them.

I did some searching...

Cloth lumbar seats from an 1989 GTA:

(This is an old thread, he probably doesnt have them anymore)

Corbeau makes some cloth seats with inflatable lumber (ex: GTS II)

As far as I know, all 4th-gen Camaros came with one-piece back-rests (no seperate head-rest). I could be wrong though

The 3rd gen GTA seats were the same as the 4th gen seats except for the headrest and some of the plastics. My 91 had black cloth and I'm starting to think I liked those more than the leather ones I have now.
