Question Do 4th gen seats bolt right up on a 3rd gen?

Would the complete set of seats from a 96 Z-28, bolt right up on my 92 RS?
Thanks

Did this swap myself 2 weeks ago. They bolt right in with no problems. The only fun I had with mine was hooking up power to the drivers seat since the 92 didn't have power seats and the replacement set did.

How did you do that, because I will be facing the same challenge.

All you do is run a power wire from the fusebox to the seat under the carpet. You can run the ground to one of the seat bolts if you want. Takes about 5 minutes to wire up the seat.

Anyone know where I could get a pair of fourth gen leather's for my thirdgen?

The fourth gens get totally pulled apart down here before they even hit the junkyard... I've looked for a year now and have had absolutely no luck. Was thinking of getting semi-cheap, lightweight drag seats for replacements... but decided on driving pleasure over weight.

You know that little light in the console??? I basically picked up a wire harness from Autozone and attached it to those wires (no more light but who cares ) then I attached the female end of the harness to the seat and VOILA!!!! No fusebox and if I need to disconnect the seat, it is a breeze.

No junkyards seems to have the leather seats. I have been searching for months. Looks like you gotta pay top dollar on ebay. I got the rear seats in black for $50. Now I am waiting for the fronts (non power to save money). Please don't outbid me, hahaha.
