Default Seat Fitment

I want to replace the front seats in my 94 850. What seats fit my application, is it all 850 seats or what models should I be looking at. I want to buy something that works, yet at the same time I want to try to buy something that doesn't look like it has 15 years of use on it either...any help is appreciated...

All the 850's should fit.

Hey Tech Hope you had a Happy Turkey Day! (gobble, gobble)

The 850 was made till 97 correct? And will a head from a 97 850 fit on my 93? I peeled the head apart and about 16 of the 20 valves were damaged, I priced out the valves, guides 'not sure if they need it or not' but the valves alone take the cost of the repair to nearly $280...so my ability to purchase a 'wrecked' 97-850 for $400 would fit nicely into my plans, I could, rape the front seats, head and Iacv and maybe the MAF which would save me cash in the future...

Thanks again for your time...

I will have to look it up im not sure. Also the 93's were I think 30K timing belt intervals.

Tech, the factory manual seems to state the 93 T-belt interval is 50k.

It may be interesting to go to the extreme route; see attached; you never know what kind of people you would be attracting:

Yes I admit that I am a goof but hey at least I try. And if you examine closely, the seat comes with a cup holder too!!!
