2nd gen seats into 3rd gen Z28

Hello Ladies and Gentleman

That's a bit unusual modification but I'm planning to put seats from 1980 Camaro Berlinetta in to my 1991 Z28. Just because those 2nd gen seats are red and I can get them very cheap.
So my question is what mods, if any, will I need to do to fit them in to 3rd gen? Will the back seat fit if it doesn't split in half like my Z28 seat?

I would prefer 4th gen seats but there's not many of them around in Europe and the shipping form US would be too expensive I think.

Thanks for your help.

Just a guess, but you may be able to just swap the seat tracks onto the new seats from the original ones. Some/ALOT of GM cars have the same track bolt holes.
