4thy gen manual seat question - NJFBOA - Home of New Jersey's Camaros and Firebirds

I bought my manual 4th gen seats and installed them today. the drivers has two controls under the seat. the left one allows me to slide back and forth. there is another one on the right that is like a tab that can only move up and down. Any idea what this is?

lumbar support?

I thought the same thing but I felt no change. Maybe I'm a doofy and can't work it right...

if they are bird seats, the tab may be to "rock" the whole seat forward or back. or it may just to be adjust the bolster right under your thighs.

Yes, it adjust the pitch. I hate it when people mess this one up because it doesn't move on notches like the other one and it takes forever to get right.

Thanks! I'll see how I can adjust it tomorrow. thankfully it'll be in the 60's and sunny all week so I'll be taking the IROC instead of the Honda.

are they TA or camaro seats?

TA / Firebird seats

I adjusted the pitch last night. Very nice feature. I can't wait to try out the new seats today on the way to work.

The only issue is the IROC had split rear seats and you can see the center posts under the new 4th gen rear. I think I'm going to just color them black so they blend in a bit -- the bright red paint kind of stands out next to the charcoal seats.
