Charger seats into a dart?

GoGiter said

Hi everyone, my first post. I have a 75 Dart Swinger with the original back seat (very good condition but slight spliting along seat seams, but green) which I was thinking of keeping. The former owner took the front bench out and put in some buckets from some type of mazda. I would like to get rid of the front seats and am now on the search. I would keep the back bench Just recover with new black vinyl kit from ebay once I found some factory-ish front seats.

Ah, then I came across some clean white 76 Charger seats (see pic). Would these fit in my Dart? Thanks in advance and I LOVE this site!!! I have spent an unhealthy amount of time on it since I found it last week :-D

Interesting, those look like the seats the previous owner put in my Dart ('71 4 door). Mine even has power on the drivers side, and a fold down arm rest.

Did they fit well? In a word, no. They butchered the floor to remove the riser for the bench seat, and the seat was about 1.5" off center of the steering wheel. I just got done pulling the drivers seat and drilling new holes to move it over, so it can be made to work, but I am now right up against the arm rest. It works, but I wouldn't have done it to begin with. Maybe with a set of A-Body seat tracks, and no power and no arm rest, but it would take a lot of work to get them right (read - centered in front of the steering wheel).
