Caviler, Sunbird, and mid 90's Firebird/Camaro seats will also work.

Lol when you click that link it has been deleted by the poster. Do any of those possibilities bolt right up? The brackets on the ones that are in it now are shot so I need an alternative that bolts right up with the brackets that go to what I'm putting in not the old brackets.

Word of advice:
Pay close attention to the width and especially the height of the seats you are planning to put in a Fiero.

Yep, the height of replacement seats is critical for anyone who's tall.

I think I've got two in Dad's garage, cloth brown if I'm not mistaken. Not sure how I'd get them to you though...

I saw "mid-90's", but can anyone specify what exact years Camaro-Firebird seats bolt up to the Fiero frames?

My rump thanks you in advance.

I was thinking about replacing my seats but then found a good deal on Mr. Mike's covers. What I did from there was call Mr. Mike and get the added cushioning for the covers. I am very pleased on how the seats feel on my bottom and back now. My wife even said that the seats are a lot better.

82-02 Camaro and firebird (and trans am) seats are all the same where it matters.

Having been through so many seats, the best option is rebuilding Fiero stock seats with Mr. Mike's.

Even 2002 seats are 17 years old now. They will start deteriorating fast anyway and put you right back where you started. Furthermore, F-body upholstery is sold in complete sets including the rear seats for about $1,000, last I checked, for quality upholstery. Again, Mr. Mike for stock seats is the best option

This is a pic of my interior and I always say that I sit IN them and not on them.

Thank you for using my choice of seats.

Fair points all. My problem is likely the lack of padding on the seat bottom (as opposed to the voluminous padding on MY bottom!)

I see MrMikes actually has a page on doing up the bottom if torn, so I may be able to get away with that. Time to remove a seat and look in there.

Thanks!

If you were closer, I'd sell you my seats that were re-covered with a set of Mr. Mike's. Even had him sew the original Fiero badges into the seat back

Mr. Mikes seats actually come with bottoms that go over your original's to give back its cushion. Depending on your situation you can very well add more or less.

You can also add additional foam from a fabric store like Jo-Ann's (+ check for 40% off coupons) or pick some up from a local upholstery shop. Really pretty easy to fix up the old seat bottoms.
