Before you read on, know that I've worked with 94-95 leather and cloth seats, along with 96-99 cloth seats. I didn't get to play with 96-99 leather seats (cushions), but only leather covers from 96-99. The following is a comparison between the 94-95 seats and the 96-99 seats.
1. The tops/bottoms are not interchangeable. Neither are the rails. They're all completely different. 2. 96-99 seats are taller, heavier, and have more cushion. Which means the earlier seats are lighter, shorter, and thinner. The later seats actually "sit" higher from my experience, too. 3. Leather covers from 96-99 seats will fit on cloth seat cushions from 96-99 seats with more padding. I wouldn't suggest leather 96-99 covers on earlier seats as the cushions are taller on the later seats. 4. If you're switching seats, you'll also need to switch the seat belt latch mechanisms (the part connected to the seat with the "press" button). The wiring harnesses are slightly different. 5. Finally, if you happen to get an amazing deal on 94-95 covers and plan to put them in your 96-99 car, you'll absolutely need 94-95 seats. But at least you'll be saving weight! Hope that helps guys! |
