G8 rear seats & trim transplant to 2014 PPV?

Post by markf1971 »

I've read that the rear G8 seats will bolt right in to my 2014 PPV, but the trim pieces at each end appear to need some cutting to fit my PPV. The car had the 'perp' seats when I got it. Any advice or helpful hints about what to do with the trim pieces on each end of the upright portion of the rear seats would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

What trim pieces are you referring to? The G8 seats are 100% bolt in, plug & play. Have a set in my 2015.

The left side is part number 92172488. GM calls it a "lock pillar trim". There is one for sale on eBay described as "Left Rear C Pillar Panel Trim Cover". Evidently the trim pieces om both C pillar were removed along with the OEM PPV seats, so that the 'perp' rear seat could be installed.

The piece from the G8 is too long and doesn't match up with the trim piece on my PPV that covers where the shoulder belt feeds out.

Hi Markf1971,
The part number you have listed (92172488) is for the G8. The correct part numbers are 92233193 (RS) and 92233195 (LS) for the 11-13 Caprices and 92264459 (RS) and 92264460 (LS) for the 14-17 Caprices. Although the part numbers are shown to be different between the two year groups, I think the parts are identical for all the years. I have a good used set available for $100 plus shipping if you are interested.
