Default C7 seats in a C6?
I like the look of the C7 seats and wonder if they could possibly fit in a C6? Anyone know?

Thanks
Kelly

CARRAVAGIO has been making those sport seats for years now.DSVETTES probably does too.

Yeah, don't be silly. Recaro or Caravaggio

And like most GM parts, the seats will probably be more expensive than quality aftermarket seats as mentioned above.

I was wondering the same thing. Post a link if you find any seats that are comparable to the new one.

The chances of C7 seats bolting in and electrics hooking up to a C6 are somewhere between zero and none.

If you want different seats for your C6, go aftermarket. If you want the C7 seats, simply buy the car.

I'm guessing the seats won't fit and if they do they'll be more expensive than Caravaggio.

They don't fit. And you wouldn't want them to for the price. Get high quality aftermarket ones.

I love this FORUM!!!




I noticed they listened tho and put cooled/heated seats in. That's exciting! Hopefully no more hot sweaty back.
