[DeTomaso] Fiero seats in a Pantera

[Jeff Detrich]

Fiero Seats look like this, pics 1-2. The fiero rails do not match up with
the pantera rails as attached to the floor pan. The Pantera rails are
better. You need to build a spacer that moves the attach point for the
fiero seats to the attach point for mounted Pantera rails. See pics 3-4.
Right and left seats are different. Take your time measuring and fitting to
get it right.

People sometimes buy the earlier seats with the speakers in the headrest.
They aren't very effective IMHO.

They fiero seats are a little higher than Pantera seats. Make sure you fit.
You can pull off a little of the foam in the center of the seat but it
won't buy you muck more space.

I also had to remove a lot of the foam from the bottom of the seat to get
them to slide over the carpet.

Mr. Mikes makes leather seat covers and they can embroider the logo in them.

Good luck.
