Late model seats in a 87-93 stang??

[winder]

Anybody put newer seats (99 0n up) in a 87-93 stang? Will the brackets bolt to the seats or do I have to rig them? With the newer seats do you hit the bottom of the steering wheel getting in?

it has been done by someone here. Cant remember but heres a bump.

oh ya and i think you have to jimmy rig em. I dont think its too hard but a little working must be done to get em in.

they should fit considering it is still the same chassis as the 94-98 i had sn95 leather seats in my 88 coupe and they bolted right up just had to run wires for the power part hope i may be wrong

I recently put the 02' GT seats into my 89' Coupe. Not hard by any means. I used the 02' tracks and they bolted up with no modifications. They sit about an inch higher, but with all the power hooked up, you can adjust it easily.
As far as power goes... The 02' seats use a 4 prong adapter, while in the 89', I only had a two wire lumbar control adapter.

I clipped the 4 wire plug out of the 02' seat, and used the 89' seat plug. This leaves you with two extra wires. Ignore them. You only need to use the thick black wire and thick (?) green wire on your 99+ seats. Hooking it up like this will give you power seats, but no lumbar. You can simply tie in the lumbar controls from the seat into your "new" plug.
Very easy to do. Took me about an hour to get the old seats out, new driver seat wired up correctly, and the new seats installed!
Already had two people comment on them! ( I used the GT seats that have the pony embroidered onto the seat)

I bought a set of 99 seats for my 93. There not power and being one inch taller than stock is not making me happy since I cant adjust that. I hate getting in the stang and trying to get under the steering wheel. I am 6:4 and 265 and it's not easy since I have no tilt. But thanks for the info. At least the seats I am getting won't pinch. The stocks ones are made for skinny butts. Not Iowa corn feed boys like me.
