    Has anyone ever attempted taking late model power seat tracks/mechanisms from a mustang or similar Ford and adapting it to a Maverick high back bucket seat?

    Thanks. I have a set of SN95 Mustang power buckets that I was thinking of using for donor parts. Just wondered if anyone had tried it.

    I found a power seat module for the driver seat in a 78-79 Granada once. It was very odd and did not have the "standard" Ford bucket seat bolt pattern.

    The lines drawn into the picture illustrate what kind of plates would have to be made to adapt Grabber high back buckets to this set-up.
