    Send the seller an e-mail and ask for a measurement across the base to reference from with your seats, you can adapt any seat rails to fit anything.  Phisical size of seats is the most important thing. :2thumbs:

    Keep in mind they don't really fold forward on a 4-door if you plan on using the back seat :bigsmile:

    Also, those things will be bulky as hell (weight). Power, heated, big thick my bar$tards lol. Dad has a SRT8. Comfy seats though, just get the measurements for the seats and put that against the factory seats to see what you're playing with if your car is at the body shop. :2cents:

    Good news they will fit.  :woo:

    My 06 chargers tracks are 16.5 on the floor center hole to center hole. My 70 challenger is 14.75 center to center.
    The 06 seat is 2 inches narower but has 2 inches of plastic on one side.

    If they are black send them to me I will use them in my car.  :smilielol:

    Just incase, I may as well post them anyhow lol.........


    My 70 bucket seats are roughly:

    35.5" from floor to top of headrest
    22-3/4" to 23" Wide (widest part of seat foam)
    21.5" to 22" front to back

    I can't imagine that the rear would fit. The rear of an LH car is designed around three butts - the Challenger around two smaller ones.
