Alright, so unfortunately both the driver and passenger seats in my 99' GT Coupe broke down around the second week after I had purchased the car. I've taken it to quite a few automotive shops around town, and they've tried fixing the seats to no avail. Apparently the part isn't possible to locate.
I'm not sure why it wasn't possible to fix, but right now my seats are huge safety hazards for anyone riding in my car. Basically the mecahnism that locks them in place is broken, so the backs move forward/backward freely. If I was to ever get into a collision, the seat would have enough force to seriously injure/kill the passenger.
Finally, I decided that it was time to fix this problem. I currently have a pair of these seats:
RS-SII-FB-BKBK Spyder SII Racing Seat Fabric - Black/Grey (Double Adjust/Slider) for 97-03 Pontiac Grand_Prix at Andy's Auto Sport
You probably already know my problem, but I'm trying to find a way to switch out my current seats with those. I didn't realize how hard of a task this was going to be.
from what I understand, GP's stock brackets are not compatible with these, or any racing seats. They also don't make custom seat brackets that would work in my GP.
If I'm wrong about any of that, please let me know! Because I'm very new to the whole "car scene" and am doing my best to figure it all out.
Anyway, I'm just looking for some insight as to if there is ANY way possible to get these seats in my car. I'm more than willing to purchase whatever parts/services may be needed to accomplish this/do whatever instructions you may have. I don't mind not having any of the electric functionality that my current seats have, or whatever else I might need to sacrifice..
Thank you guys so much, and I'm really hoping someone might have a solution. (also please note: I know that it's very easy/popular to install 04+ seats into my GP, but I paid $600+ for these racing seats.. and I have to put them to use!)
