Are the 94 seats the same as the 93's?

Hey, I just got a set of sparco torino's and I am struggling to figure out how I am going to mount them. Sparco says they only have brackets for 90-93 and 96-99. WHY DID THEY LEAVE OUT 94 and 95? But the weird thing is corbeau did the same. So I wanted to know if they really are the same or if they are different. I will take pictures later today. Thanks.

Ok Here are some pictures:


These are the new seats that I got, I wanted it to somewhat match.


This is where the stock seat should be


this is another angle. The right side and the left of the mount's are not the same height.


The bottom of the new seat

It's too bad we have the same year. Otherwise I could just drive over and we could compare. The seats look really good, I think they'll match nicely. It was cool seeing you on the freeway today. Sorry you had to see my car so dirty :P

well, that looks just like the mount for my 93, so I can't imagine they are off by much

I've always wandered about the cable that goes under the driver's seat. What is it's purpose since I don't have power seats?

its so you can have power seats if you want them.

They pre wire the cars for power seats (at least on USDM cars they do) and just plug off the lines into a dummy plug in the seat if you dont have power.

Neither of my SEs had power but I put my power seats from my gxe in them and they plugged right up and worked.

The cable is both for the power and also for the seatbelt buckle sensor.

The brackets for 89-94 are the same. And 95-99 should be the same.
