Convert from power to manual seat?

What would I need to convert from power to manual seat assuming I am keeping the same actual seat?

I know this isn't exactly the most logical route, but I am looking to sell my car and as of right now the power seat will not move forward and back, only up/down, and if I leave the main seat power plugged in it drains my battery. I noticed that it is quite pricey if I want to replace the motor (if that is even the problem, could be a wiring issue) as I would have to buy the whole assembly with both motors so unless I can find just the motor I need at a parts yard or from somewhere then I am forced to pay.

This brings me to converting to a manual seat. What parts would I need to do this for a '95 Camaro?

Like I said I am looking for the most economical route otherwise I would be spending the time/money to fix the problem.

i'm sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong, but you should only need the tracks. a junk yard should help. there might even be something that will cross reference to it.

Alright thanks. I will look into that. I was hoping it wouldn't be too involved as like I said I am trying to do this on a budget. If you happen to find anything else about it let me know. Thanks.
