replacing seats
 

hello everyone...

i drive on the highway alot with my car... and find that my back starts hurting after a hour or two of driving...

so i was thinking about looking for some leather seats to install in my car... i know the gls version came with 6 way adjustable power seats in leather... not sure if they still did the fold down thing...

anyways... are the leather ones comfier? or would i beable to swap seats from another vehicle (if leather preferably a heated one)

and the back middle seat is also rather hard... would leather seats help that?

i have leather and i dont find it that useful you slide around alot on them

dont mean to thread jack but does anyone know if gp seats will swap to the alero?

I'd make sure that your lumbar support is turned all the way down, because that pos absolutely kills my back. I couldn't figure out what was doing it at first, when I could hardly walk after getting out of the car... It was that cheap stupid lumbar support.

anyone know about the gp seats going to alero?

you know that the leather ones are the same shape and everything.....just leather. lol

and the lumbar support isnt bad for some people.....my lower back always hurts so i have mine pushed out a good amount. helps a lot

sry to bash i dont dont see how leather would help at all, heat might, they have pads you can buy for car seats that will do the same thing as a heated seat, why go thourgh all that trouble and money for leather with wears, cracks, and gets so hot in the sun

If his seats are messed up, maybe he is just thinking, "I might as well go leather". Leather looks classier than regular fabric which rips and tears as well. Also, with leather, if you use a conditioner, you dont run as much risk of it cracking. But anyways (to the op) Alero seats are probably all the same. I think mine also adjust six ways and its not a GLS and they are fabric. So leather wont really make a difference comfort-wise. The leather is just a cover over a regular alero seat.

leather and cloth both have their pros and cons. im pretty sure leather and cloth both have the same style stitching but compared to my brother's cloth seats in his alero, my leather seats feel softer.

Although everyone has vastly different opinions on which seats are comfortable and which ones aren't (I liken it to trying on shoes....), it is my firm stance that the only GM product to have comfortable, supportive seats was the '04-'07 Pontiac GTO.
Yes, even the seats in the almighty Corvette ZR1 are embarrassing.

They should. I'm planing on trying it, but I don't think the color matches, the Taupe anyway

I personally like the seatsof the Cobalt SS. I have a certain setting in the Bravada but after a while I get sore and agitated. Try bringing the seat up or lay it back. Lumbar makes a difference, either good or bad.

Moral of the story: change positios after a while.

sexy car

taupe=tan correct?
i have the tan interior and i love the gtp seats.
will the back seats fit as well?

That's one thing I miss about that car. It sure was comfy.

Cliff, how many cars have you owned? You know all the random crap....like what years chevy trucks didn't come with running boards. It's amazing.

i don't think the gp's back seat will fit, but the fronts should as long as they're from a 2 dr

well i'm just looking for a softer and a seat that has more cushion to it... though leather ones might help...

Would the GTO seats fit?

My driver's seat is showing wear as it would in a 9 year old car with 1043xx mile on it ;)

the gp came in a two door, i wonder if they will fit... when i get to work today i will go check out some gp's and see how they are put it and width

any one look into the grand prix seats... had a friend with a grand prix... i think his seats were softer... and i think you can get heated leather seats... sure it wouldn't be hard to wire up... just the bolting down part...

also... oldsmobile aurora... should i assume those seats will fit... they come in heated leather... i bet they are comfy too... i'm sure i could wire up the heated part.

Just get some bucket seats lol

this threads from 2009....

My wife drives a grand prix i'll check later to see the seats in her car feels a whole lot better than mine.

snap in some buckets and your goodo

I'm gonna bump this thread. Does anyone if it was confirmed if the Grand Prix seat fit the alero?? i found some GTP/GXP seats on sale about 2 hours away and was wondering if they'd fit before i drove down there to look at them.

Hey does anybody know if front leather seats from a 2006 pontiac G6 GT would work in my 2002 Alero?? Just wondering cause ive got a chance to get all the seats for $300.00

300 is to expensive. Save your money they arent worth that.

Ok but just for futur refefence,do the g6 seats fit mine at all or no?

You'd have to custom mount the front im sure. Electric controls would have to be custom wired im sure. Rear seats most likely not.

Ah ok nevermind then lol. I just ran across some really nice black leather front and back seats and i thought,hmmm... i wonder if those would fit. Lol!! But oh.well. what other seats will interchange with mine?? My front seats are pretty beat down and very uncomfortable

I believe GT grand am seats are swapable. Other then that, start investigating or get some racing seats.

Yeah i found some grand am gt seats about 70 miles away from me but they were rediculous priced in my opinion.. They were wanting $350.00 just for the 2 front seats and they were cloth seats. But other then that i cant find any that are even kind of local so the shipping is ungodly..

Yeah those seats shouldnt be that much period lol.

There is a guy here locally that said he could redo all of the padding in my front seats and recover them in any fabric or for $250.00 so i may just do that.

Not to bad

Do you know of anybody that has any nice gt seats? Just need the fronts

I dont :(

Crap! :(

GP seat will not fit, they are a wider seat because the W body is a wider car. GA seats do fit, but I don't think the GA colors are an exact match to the Alero's colors. The gray seems darker and the taupe is very dark. In fact, I don't even think the GA color is Taupe.

Any seats for the Alero and GA at this point are going to need recovering, I say head to the local junkyard, pull the seats, have them recovered, and have a nice day ;)
