if it was you the truck looked sweet with the vet seats in it. 2002yroneformula i think it would be bas *** with the GTO seats in it. post some pics if you get them in.

That sounds like somethin I would say...

Probably was me...

Back on topic... 2002yrone, based on my experience... I would definately go with the GTO seats, If it was springtime up here, I would take some pictures of my setup, custom brackets and all, let us know how it goes with some pics

Well I haven't got them yet. I actually came across a thread in the appearance section about putting them in an F-body and there were pics that I was able to look closer at and see that I might like them better than the C5 Sport Seats. I'm a big guy so I want something that's comfortable but has a sportier look than the factory seats without being comfortable enough to make a 5+ hour ride.

anything will fit anywhere, just depends on how much time and money you got.

You will love those seats if you get them. After driving my H2 most days a drive in the Firehawk seats sucked. When I traded the Hawk for the GTO I fell in love with the GTO seats. Firm and supportive with good leather.

For anyone wondering how I came up with putting GTO seats in the truck, I saw the seats that Year One used in their Nova project on RIDES last week and really liked how they were large and sporty, but I don't have the money to have custom seats made like those. I saw the thread the next day I think about putting GTO seats in an Fbody with a link to an EBay auction and after looking closer realized they were very similar to the seats in the Nova.
