Those seat's are so comfy you won't want to get out of the car.

Then next step will be to change out the 3-month cam that is in it. You know, fun for 3 months. It's too big, cam surge is annoying.

If you don't mind me asking....what did it cost you for the pair? I've been calling around locally and they all laughed at me (although Canadian wreckers don't have much new stuff). I searched in Seattle and the first place I looked had a set out of an 04 and wanted $650 each. Does that sound about right?

I think that is WAY high for those seats. I got a heck of a deal on mine & probably shouldn't say what I got. ;-)

You can get a set of front & rear seats anywhere from $400-$1,000, depending on the vendor and the condition/color, the red ones seem to fetch a premium. I have seen many sell in the 600-800 ($US) range in decent condition, perfect condition are of course higher...
If you are going to recover them to match your interior, (or cover up the 'GTO' stitching) a set with a tear or a puncture could be a real bargain. Just make sure the switch assy. are in good shape, as they are pricey to replace ($250 IIRC)

You Monte SS guys are going nuts with those GTO seats! lol. They are comfy though.. heavy, but very nice. I can't wait until I can pitch the stock seats!

Very nice! I bought a set of Red ones, front and rear and now trying to figure out how to mount them in my '56. Congrats!

If you guys bought these seats from ebay, how did they ship them? How were they protected?
