My bet would be someone in the appearance section has tried it. GM generally does parts like seats as parts bin bolt in, so just check the bolt spacing on the bottom of the C5 seat compared to your f-body seat and you will be able to tell.

go sit in some trans am seats, mine were alot more supportive then camaro seats. also the honda s2000 seats fit and they are really nice leather and very supportive. | |

I had my TA seat recovered and padded and MAN are they perfect. They have a lot of support and are now way more comfortable than the vette seats. Also I dont think the vette seats offer much stability because they are normally pressed back against the rear deck.

s2000 seats are nice but pricey for a stock seat at least around here for that money i might as well wait and get recaros or something like that plus im not so sure about that just bolting right in and they arent that light but neither are stock c5 seats either

gottem in my car, and love'em. better than ta seats. you'll have to drill back holes. i moved the left front bracket on the seat inboard so i could use the stock stud on the floor, but you should be able to drill a hole instead. start by setting the seat on the right stock floor stud for positioning. these seats also have more front to rear travel which is good if you're over 6 ft. | |
