My question is: Will we have to remove the original (existing) seat base in total before we install replacement (Buick) seats? Or would we install the replacement seats on to of the existing base?
Our seat base got welded in at some point, and I don't want to start cutting if I don't have to. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 158 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 158 | That was me (or at least I was one of them) that posted about leaving in the seat riser. I got some 2000 Buick LeSabre seats and they fit without the riser, but I have to raise them all the way up (they are powered seats). If I had left the riser, I could have used them in the lowered position and still had room for a shorter driver to raise the seats.

Thanks for the follow up! | | |
