I was junkyward surfing on friday and i saw a couple of seats in cars that i wanted. Here is the problem! I saw some 4th firebird and camaro seats in decent condition and i know they are direct bolt in. Only problem is that they were SOAKED! Now would this be a issue if i got them. Like mold and mildew in the foam cculd they be cleaned and dried out to be decent still?

good question. id say if it was just one rain, and you got them dry'd out youd stand a good chance of being okay. but being a junkyard, how many times have they been rained on? that id be worried about.

Thanks for the quick responses snds,. Um yea they have probably been sitting there for a good while...plus it rained again today sooo A long time im assuming.. So i don't know itf they can be saved..be nice it they could other than being wet as all hell the seats them selves are in good condition.

You could get them, strip the fabric off, and take some mildew spray and a scrub brush to the foam. Maybe use one of those carpet cleaner things on the foam and fabric to suck anything out. Just a thought because JY seats are CHEAP!!!

Also get a carbon sheet and put it in between the upholstery and foam when you're done cleaning it to avoid future smell.

Yea he wants them for cheap, Ill grab as many as i can and resell them to you guys if there is a interest its about 4 or 5 of them there and i saw some sweeet celica seats there also.

If theres any dark leather ones that arent torn up lemme know.

Another idea: Maybe you can strip them fully down and throw both the foam and the material in the washer, use color safe bleech, and then let them hang dry outside. That should take care of any mold issues. If I am wrong I am sorry, but just a thought!

Yea'll ill let you guys know, I'll try and go back friday and take pics an let you know, those f-body seats are direct swap for our seats. so anything is worth a try!

if they have mold on them a quick rub down won't do the trick, they will need to be treated with speacial mold removal crap to get it gone. if not it will just come back and mold can make you sick so be careful whatever you do.

Take your time. Im poor right now anyways. I just thought maybe you went and they were crap or something.

What year of Firebirds and Camaros are 4th generation. Mike


96 Cavfire and a tubbed Astro

94 or 95 - 02 IIRC.

If all else fails, go get some new foam and some new fabric and reupholster them. I've been thinking of doing this with my seats since they both have a hole from the previous person before they went to the yard. Suede or leather seems good and I have seen places that sell colored vinyl in case you want to match your interior if it is custom. Just a thought.
