Compatible seats? January 13, 2007, 10:26:12 PM Been thinking about ditching my cloth seats for leather. What sort of donors are there? Lincoln MK 7 seats are pretty sweet and I'm reasonably sure the front ones would bolt in...what about the back? Quote Selected
Compatible seats? Reply #1 – January 14, 2007, 07:48:20 PM The fronts will but I'm not sure about the back. The back seats look very similar to the ones in our cars. Only way to know is to try it :D Quote Selected

Compatible seats? Reply #3 – January 14, 2007, 09:09:02 PM Mk 7 seats will fit (front and rear). The rear backs are a little tight in a Tbird, but they do fit. Had one in one of the '83's for a while. Quote Selected

Compatible seats? Reply #8 – January 20, 2007, 07:47:27 PM Tbird seats are awful :barf: ....The front seats from a 90's explorer will also fit, that's what I'm rolling with. They're very supportive to your back and comfortable. (I think rangers of that same era have the same/similar seats.) I did have to cut off the center console from the old Tbird driver seat and then weld it on to the explorer driver seat. I switched the electric track from my old seats to my new ones and it was virtually a perfect swap, except that I had to thread two holes (that were already on the explorer seat) to accept the bolts securing the track to the seat, and cut off a supporting bracket under the explorer seats. I've been procrastinating on getting them reuphostered to match the rest of my interior--they're gray and my interior is blue. Quote Selected

Compatible seats? Reply #14 – January 20, 2007, 09:20:07 PM I have the factory Fila seats in mine. I guess they are either a T/c seat or Stang' seat. They are wrapped in factory white leather, now cracked and cut and torn. Sorry I don't have a direct picture Quote Selected
