Sweet. You mean 89 fiero seats I'm sure. Did you get the upholstery kit from Mr. Mike's?

nope, i ment 1969 fiero seats. it was supposed to be a play on words. oh, well. they are out of an 86 but have they been recovered like the factory 69 seats. Mr.Mikes did do the seat covers. I had taken pics of the rear seat and measurements of the pleats and he went from there. He did a fantastic job! He also uses quality material and craftmanship.

i got the idea from a guy on 69stang.com. if you go this route, i know you will love them. i do! it sits like a new car instead of the old saggy factory spring seats.

Wow opie, that looks very clean. I see the passenger side seat is close to the humphugger console. Does it prevent the seat from going all the way forward? Did you use your seat tracks or the fiero seat tracks? I used the fiero tracks on mine.

valley, the passenger seat is one or two clicks shy of going all the way forward. I used mustang tracks and made brackets to fit. i used 1/4"x1 1/2" flat stock that i cut 18"s long for my brackets. there is only a half inch difference in width between the fiero mounting holes and the holes in the floor.
