Wow - love to hear the numbers on that option. A little GTA action for the IROC. Never ever seen.

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

I've never been able to find the logic in having different seats for the driver and passenger. It just looks goofy. Like someone pulled a driver's seat from another car in the junkyard and just tossed it in. Might be why those options were never very popular.

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

Weird! Looks like the driver's side is a sport seat out of a period Corvette, but the passenger's seat looks totally out of place next to it without the support and lumbar controls. According to the Camaro White Book, it was a $650 option available on Z28 only, with just *184* people ordering it! Rare indeed.

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

The White book also clams it to be a Z28 only option, but the 86 LS Conteur seat I owned was pulled from an 86 Sports Coupe. I found it online in a New Jersey junkyard before most people had an E-Mail account. A few years back I sold that seat to a local buddy of mine,...... he had it recovered with the Tan "Camaro" logo fabric. I sure wish I had a picture of it to post,... but I don't.

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

Symmetry would be nice for sure - but hey: one less thing to break. Many cheaper C4s have the passenger power adjustments conspicuously missing also, for instance. (And who gives a hoot about the passenger anyway :P)
Most of all: man do I love lumbar support! Love to have that option.

Good luck finding new covers for that option!

I never knew that those seats existed!

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

I bet it's fun to drive! Being held in the seat has to make the twisties a lot more fun! I think it's a neat option! But I also agree that the passenger seat should match it

Re: 86 iroc with the rare ls af9 seats on ebay

Those seats are RARE. They are the very rare 1986 Lear Siegler power seats. VERY few of those exist & 1986 only. Very limited numbers & are 100% correct for that IROC
