front seats for sure, backs might need some mods, and i have no clue on the belts

The belts will fit, but they are a slightly different design than the 3rd gen belts.

Ask Tim about them, he has 4th gen belts in his '83.

The backs will bolt right in too but you might wanna do something about the rod on the hump...my 86 had one...i just left it but it looked kinda goofy there.

My '85 was a v6 sport coupe, and my '87 is an LT (LG4). Both were pretty de-optioned.

What part of the seat rested on it?

i think the seat bottom..it didnt really rest on it..bah..in fact the whole peice looked pointless..

It was a peice of metal rod that went through the carpet in the center of the hump and a end poked out on each side..

yes, split rear seat backs have that "rod" which is in the middle on top of the tranny hump, full rear seat backs dont have it. for the most part higher optioned vehicles had the split options. and they were mainly 87-92 i believe.
