There is another thread going on about this right now:

The T/A seats are 1,000,000,000 x better then the Camaro seats.
Camaro's seats have no headrest compared the the T/A's adjustable ones.
Lumbar - Camaro has no support really, feels like a bench seat. The T/A seats for both driver & passenger have lumbar support for your sides and for your lower back.
Jump in a Camaro with leather seats and cruise for a few minutes, and take some turns hard.
Now install (or go for a ride in a T/A) a set of T/A seats. They bolt right in and electric connections are the same. Now drive the same route, you will see the difference is like night/day....Camaro seats just suck period.
Thats why I put a set of T/A seats in my SS, and I know alot of my buddies has done this mod as well.
Peace,
Craig.

But a few questions, do you drive an SS? And on the T/A that you rode in, did you adjust the lumbar to fit your size?
Because if you did, I can't believe you don't like them more than the SS seats. Again to each their own though.

If you have a chance to pick some up, get them. A few tips for you ya, don't get any LT1 seats, make sure the LS1 seats are optioned for lumbar support, and make sure you get the air tubes/power cord that goes from the drivers seat over to the passengers seat.
Its the same wiring harness/connection under the drivers seat as the Camaro's so you just plug it in, not wire splicing.

I want a set of TA seat in my car so friggin bad. I hate the non adjustable side bolster. The foam in both of my Camaros on the side bolsters ripped within a few days of driving. Plus they are just too narrow. Now I had a question, is the tan leather in the TA's the same color as in the Camaro's. I want to switch badly, but not if the leather won't match.

Some T/A seats that are tan leather are two-tone. Tan leather but the back side where the mesh pockets are, that section is black. I've only seen that on Firehawks but might pop up on other T/A models, I'm not sure.
