As long as they will physically fit the space, then any seats are just a matter of adapating the rails from F-body seats to the corvette seats. They aren't a simple "bolt in" though.

I got some out of a 94 Firebird for $50. Cloth seats, no rips, good foam, but pretty faded.
Still 100x better than the POS Camaro seats though.
