Talking Swapping out the Bench for Buckets, 1986 Cutlass Supreme

So I got lucky and my stepdad had a mid 90's Cavalier get junked out and he pulled the bucket seats out of it for me.

Nice grey color, will go decent with the final interior color (when I get around to changing it all over).

Planning to swap or at least get an idea of what I have to do to swap them tomorrow. Since I couldn't find a post here, I'll post a video or at least some pics of the work needed to get it done and share.

If anyone has any tips or suggestions I'd appreciate it

I'm guessing unused holes are drilled and tapped,but they may not line up with the cavalier seats.
You may need to drill holes into the floor,and through the bracing,that runs under the floor.
Make sure they are secured securely through the bracing.
In the event of a crash,you don't want to be thrown around.

Put buckets in and there is no way for your lady friend to sit close to you...

Just sayin'.

No argument to that statement, however to make it a manual I need bucket seats, and I know a few ladies that dig a man that can handle a stick shift, and besides, I got the whole backseat for drive in movies.
