I'm considering changing the front seats in my 93 850; just read a service bulletin (for the 95, I think) that warns to secure the seatback airbag before servicing the seat and to NEVER push on the side of the front seat because it could deploy the air bag. Is any of this true for the 93 GLT?

Related to that, are there just 4 bolts that hold down the front seats? And a harness that comes in by the drivers side door? In general, is there anything mysterious about exchanging the seats?

Also related, is it obvious how to remove the back seat,

And...the inside door panels?

Thanks!

I don't think the cars got the SIPS bags till 94 or 95. I don't think your car has the SIPS bags.

Yes 4 screws and the plug for the harness.

I made a post about repairing the seatback cable so you can check that out and continue from there to remove it.

The door panels are pretty easy. There is screws along the bottom. Then there is 2 under the center insert above the inner door handle. Also one screw through the speaker and the black inner door handle and it should slide off.

 

There is a 93 GLT at a local yard.

It did not have SIPS.

Then, next to it is a 1994 GLT wagon.

It DID have SIPS.

So, one can ascertain that 1994 was the first year of SIPS.

 

Thanks gentlemen! It makes working on the 93 a little easier.
