Well, sick and tired of the power seat motors on these things, and sick of having every car I come across having a bad motor, I decided the best thing to do is to convert over to manual seat tracks.
I "heard" the tbird 89-97 had a manual seat track option, so I headed to the junkyard....
YEA RIGHT! I must have found 10-12 tbirds at least in this yard (big yard) and every one of them had power seat tracks.....
AND THEN, the poor mans mercury couger was sitting there staring at me looking very sad.
Open the door, manual seat tracks, and same floor bolting pattern as the tbirds and mark viii (it's still an mn12 car)
so I yanked out the manual tracks from the seat.
I'm going to start converting my seat over in an hour or two, and I'll take pictures and weigh the two. The weight difference between them I think is gonna be pretty substantial.
Looks like there may be some converting and some being creative to make the m completely fit. I didn't see too many posts on this yet, so I'll report back with my failure/success in a couple of hours
