What is different in the seating position 4th gen Camaro/Firebird.

Maybe its me but I just recently pick up a 95 T/A and for some reason Firebirds seats don't seem to go back far enough or the dash is closer .... I just can't put my finger on what different in the seating or interior from my 97 camaro it just seems that the firebird has less room in it then compared with my 97 camaro z/28....
does the center console sit higher in the firebird then the camaro ??
Is it just me and i am crazy or have other noticed something i am not

my brothers ta has pwr seats, my camaro has pwr seats,
and for sure it seems that his seats go father back than mine, along with that they are more adjustable.

ta seats ftw

It could be the power seats/no power seats thing. Non-power seats sit lower and go back farther than power (If I recall correctly).

i was comparing pwr to pwr camaro vrs. ta
ta definetly go farther back and are more comfortable.
bro. ta is a 02 don't know if there was a change but i have the same complaint.
i either gonna buy a set of ta seats for my car or relocate them back a inch/inch N a half

Yes My T/A seats do go back far enough for me (i am 6'1) strange i wonder why.

(Note: my T/A seat are power for the lumbar only... and they seem to sit a little higher then the camaro seat) _

Check the seat width. I know that the seat bases were widened after the 96 model year. Something about the middle age folks being a little bulkier in that area than GM expected. :D

Some of the seats were different I think. I know my '95 Firehawk had different seats than Melissa's Z.
