Default Will they fit?

I got an 88 lx that was driven by a "heavier" man . To get out of the car he pushed off the seat, this caused its frame to break, so i need a new seat. I saw somewhere on this forum that you could put seats out of a newer model year mustang in mine. Does anyone know what year it stops being direct bolt in? I can get a set out of a 1999 for dirt cheap, but idk if it fits

Yes they will bolt in...pretty much any seat from 83-04 will work in the fox.

That actually happens to ALOT of Mustangs. Its just how they sit? If you sit in it straight it looks like your trying to pull off the gangsta lean right ? lol There is an article in MM&FF last year on how to fix that.

What if the bolt came out of the floor. do you need to take out the carpet to fix the bolt?

no theres a hole right through the carpet and into the floor. some have bolts sticking out of the floor and you just take off the nut.
