Default My front seats are uncomfortable.

sorry i posted in the wrong place, couldn't really find a good place. anyway, do you find the seats to feel like it has a power lumbar over lumbaring? I've driven a f body with leather seats and it felt fine. Mine are cloth and it just seems they added too much arch in the seat back.

I know what you mean. I have the leather seats and they don't feel any different from cloth seats I had before, but if I drive for a while it can be hard on my back.

Trans am seats have adjustable lumbar support, and they are a direct bolt in if you are interested in changing your seats.

I had a 99 Camaro and hated the seats. I love my T/A seats but, never use the lumbar support. It feels like the edge of a 2x4 in my back. If I Were you I'd look into nice racing seats. Appearance section has a ton of seat threads.
