Seats for an FB, will FC's just bolt in?
as in 2nd gen seats are they the same size and do the bolts in the seats line up?
what if any work is needed to do them?
i have a broken drivers seat and a pair of leather gxl seats for free if i can make them fit

this question comes up very often.
yes they do bolt in without any problem.
use the 1st gen rails and it's a straight fit, if using second gen rails you might have to alter one hole a bit.

I'm in the process of swapping in seats from an 86 300zx. The brackets need a little bending, and the seats are a little heavy, but they're wicked grippy, have adjustable wings, and cost me $30 per.

Anyway is easy, cause 3 out of four bolts of the FC rails will line up with the mounting positions of the FB anyway, the last one is jst slightly offset, and all you have to do is use a file to enlarge it a bit.
I'd suggest using the first gen rails though.

Tennis, anyone
The 1st gen 'rails' and the 2ed gen 'rails' are the same.
bolt straight up,,no drilling,,nothing. 2ed gen seats are taller,,the 'seat' part then 1st gens. I had 2ed gen seats
and didn't like them. the 1st gen seats makes me sit lower in the car..
