Any seat up to an 04 will fit in the front w/o modification. The tracks are the same, it will just bolt right in. The seat will be about an inch taller.

The S-197 seats are HUGE! The seat itself is taller. Im not sure about foxes, but classics have a seat platform that you can cut to lower it. It knocks off about 2".

i hate GT seats, so uncomfortable lol i want somthing newer, leather and Red or Two Toned black with red. and the s-197 seats look soo comfortable... also what about the electronics, will it plug into the fox's wiring so i can have the seat powered?
