I posted detailed measurements of a stock Fiero seat sometime last year. I didn't keep track of the thread, though.
My seats are very similar to Paulcal's. The "wings" at the shoulders will hit the B-pillars if the seat is reclined too far back. I also had to get a little creative with the seat mounting brackets, using the included sliders. I had to do this because with the seats sitting on the stock Fiero sliders, my head was almost touching the headlliner... and I'm only 5'8" tall. My homebrewed arrangement gives me about 1.5" of headroom.

the mistake I made making them was assuming that the fiero seat rails would be centered on the seats where infact they were shifted about an inch to one the inside in order for the seats to fit in properly..
heh - they were easy to make - just some 4"x16" strips of 1/8" thick aluminum - a little cutout on each to clear the rail slider latch arms and a couple holes drilled in each - took me about an evening to get it all worked up using a sawsall and a drill
for a direct bolt in you'll have to stick with GM seats

paulcal, your pass seat looks like it is all the way back, but your driver seat looks like it hits before going back. how do they work? someone mentioned seats reclining all the way back, but im interested in just sliding to the furthest back spot.

I'm 6' tall and I can't depress the clutch in all the way with the seat all the way back so I don't mind that.
Not that this really helps or anything, but if I remember correctly, Fiero seats are very unusual in the fact they are low and narrow with a lot of support. Not too many seats are like them which makes them a popular conversion for other older 2-seat sports cars.
yes they are rare - and very comfortable and i love them - but 600$ to reupholster them is rediculous when I can get new seats for 150$ I may still reupholster them myself but i'm in no hurry with these integra seats
but I love the white !!!!! ( I would get that too dirty ALL the time)
