'87 - '88 P-Body Front Seat ID

I came across this little tech tip while swapping seats in the CSX Clone. This is one of many differences betwwen teh '87 and '88 P-body interiors.

1987
1988
At first glance the seat rails look very similar

A closer look shows the mounting flanges are different

1987 are almost vertical, and the 1988 are near 45 degrees from vertical

The mounting holes in the floor pan have the same features

Luckily, for seat swapping purposes, the rail mounting holes are a very close match.

Notice the differences in the seat design
