240-Z to Eagle Talon Seat Conversion

This is a documentary of conversion from stock '72 Z seats to those from a '93 Eagle Talon. Installation was simple and the seats were found at a wrecking yard for $75.00 + TAX.

One should be aware that the seats buns are slightly higher than the stock Z seats. Drivers which are 6+ feet tall may have some headroom problems.
