'97 to '02 on the Firebirds should be the same for the most part. The headrest on the seats changed. There are a few minor other things too like an oil life monitor that was added to the gauge cluster on the '98 and up cars. Of course there are color changes as well. I don't really know anything about the Camaros.

If you are looking to upgrade your interior for your GTA, go with the 98-02 stuff.

the dash is slightly different between a 93-96 and 97-02 car...the dash tops are not interchangeable...they are close enough that with some cutting they look "close" (ive seen a 97-02 dash top in a 93-96 car and the dash top corner right in front of the pass side airbag had to be trimmed to fit, it wasnt perfect but it was decent, but its much better to have the proper dash top.. (i know a guy with a 95 formula who did a 98+ exterior conversion and also took some stuff from the interior and he temporarily used the 98+ dash top with his 93-96 dash until he could find the right piece)

Seats are generally the same except the head rests and I believe the electronic seat controls changed a bit, not sure. Center console, dash and in 96 (might be 95) the odometer went digital.

odometer i think was 97 although some early 97's had the older style odo... the console/dash was 97 and the seats did change slightly from 95-96 (95's have adjustible front pieces, 96+ don't)
