Does anyone know if older 245 seats will fit in a 93 model? I would like to replace my tan cloth with tan leather, but i'm not sure which year models are interchangeable.
Thanks

The seats oughta fit, but the headrests don't swap. In 1986 they went to the curved rests, and the support bars are a tad farther apart than the 1985 and older units.

Good Luck,

Bob

From what I have read on the board about the interiors is that 81 and up are interchangable. However the seat tracks differ on the earlier models. What you may have to do is switch the seat tracks which is no big deal. From what more knowledgeable bricksters have stated the pre 86 seats had better foam so you might want to look for earlier seats.


I tried to put 700 series seats into a 91 240 "no dice", the seats are different as different can be, nothing, even internally, is the same (the seat heater pads are totally different to boot!!!).
