I reskinned my seats yesterday with the gen II, they are so much better than the old ones. I don't slip around any more plus there not torn. I replaced the back seat with one out of a 97 also.

Thanks Geno for the help, it took about six hours but it got done, and your right I did pull the Velcro off of the foam, but I just used contact cement to put it back on. I will get some pictures up once the inside of the car is clean

Where did you get the leather? I need to re do the drivers seat in the 94......Damned back sliders :mad:
 
Good deal. Im glad it worked out. Gen 2 seats in a Gen 1 rock! I have had Gen 2's in my Gen 1 now for about 4 years and Ill never go back.

ahh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha................................................. ha ha ha ha ha LOLOLOLO! oh that's a good one fit right up, yha sure they do............. sorry I'm just kidding.

not in one way shape or form you need to get the leather and foam from a 97 or 98 and tare all the seats down a put the gen II on the gen one frame. When I talked to Geno he said it took him 2 hours but he has done interior work before and I have not so it took me six on my living room floor but i also downed a 12 pack to. So if you have a workbench and the new seats its not that hard i cant really tell you how much it cost because I got other stuff with it too.

I thought It was a direct swap to till I got home and talked to Geno, you cant do rewiring to cause its all different, the gen II are totally redesigned. The only way is to reskin.

I know a second gen can be made to go into a first gen, I dont kow the process though.
 
Floor mounts are but you will not have power to move them so it SOL's that idea, trust me I wanted to just rewire but this is the only way, sorry. Its not as hard as it sounds it easy just takes a while cuz you want to take your time. I would say the hard part is finding the seats, I think ERIC1 still has some tan ones at his place he will sell.

But good news as far as the back seat no modification required they bolt right in takes 2 min to do the back seat swap.


I have had the seats for half a week and one of my friends fell asleep in it, that's when you know you did a good job. Then you just break check the car. That's fun!
