The seats from a early 80's Camaro are identical. If the mounts don't line up? Maybe you could replace with CUCV mounts?
Great information! Thanks for posting this! Maybe it will help other people wanting to replace seats? I remember when I started this seat project. I had a...
The seat restoration project is done! This was something I wasn't sure exactly what heck I was doing. I the end I am quite pleased how everything turned out.
As Hannibal (A-Team) said "I Love it when a plan comes together!"
Getting the Driver side seat mounted was stubborn. It was a...

After I did my first seat I did notice that you could bruise the paint job after it was dry to the touch. I am talking a few hours of drying in 80 degree weather. After 24 hours of drying it was better.
So before I started the second seat. I call SEM tech support concerning...
Wallew,
Thank you for your input.
I choose the maroon color because my interior on my M1009 was maroon already.
I am trying to keep color the same. My current seats have a black vinyl cover.

I just got the Driver side completely refurbished today. I am waiting for vinyl colorcoat to dry.
I should have more information soon on how everything fits.

Twlinks, Roger that on the Clorox spray.
Anyway, I got the seat all cleaned up. I am pleased how well this worked out.
The spring action in the new seat is so much better than what I have.
I also now have a seat and mount that will lift up and tilt forward. Accessing the back will be...
Yes stranger75 I went to Pull a Part of Briley. I sent you a PM.
I bought a passenger seat out of a 83 civy Blazer. It does fit, with the same civy mounts.
No modifications on my part. The bolt holes lines up. I was a bit concerned on fit after some research it did.
Anyway I paid $30 out...
I bought my M1009 in May. The seats have been on my list of things todo.
My seats the springs are about shot. I got tears and rusted metal parts.
Also my passenger side seat doesn't lift up and tilt forward. I don't think it the original seat. It seems like driver side seat was used...
