Anyone?  Anyone?

I am instructing at a couple of schools coming up and need to find a passenger seat.

If anyone has one laying around I am interested!!

TIA!!

To be honest I can't say I know, but I don't see why it shouldn't fit. The brackets/sliders should be the same.
The only problem you may have (if they fit that is) is that the slider and reclining adjustments would be on the wrong side, making it near impossible to adjust the angle (recline) if the center console thingy's in the way like it is on an S13...

I guess that didn't help much, but just pointing out possible problems. I suppose comfort won't be on the top of the list for these students though. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I'm about 90% sure they are interchangable.  I've seen several S13's w/ S14 seats in them.

Thats actually what I intend to do.  Get some S14a leather seats for my S13.

Yes, they will fit, but  I have no clue why you'd want to put the s13 seats in an s14. . . Granted, the '89 and '90 s13 just look cool, but are about as comfortable as a public speech on family values performed naked.

LOL, nicely put.

Yes they will fit, but i'm not a fan of my s13 seats.... they form really nice to my back, but there's by no means "comfortable".

I don't really car that much if they are too comfy, just solid and bolted in securely.  It is going in my race car, so I can give some rides.  I asked about s13 because they are easier to find around here.  I have an old accord seat but it is lite blue and doesn't offer much support, plus making seat brackets is a pain in the ass!!  If I can find a stock seat it will just bolt in!

Sooo,   anyone got an extra seat laying around??

S13 seats suck for bolstering (w/o modification)  If your gonna give rides on a track, full out, expect them to hold on to the dash, and window frame <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
