Archived from groups: alt>autos>ford (more info?)

I was leaning back in the seat yesterday to get my cell phone from my
pocket, and I heard something snap. Now the seat is all lopsided and
doesn't seem to be held down on the front left corner - when
accelerating, I can feel that corner lifting. It has been squeaking
going over bumps for a month or so before this happened.

I would like to go down to the junkya... um... automotive recycling
center and get one I can just bolt down with no drilling or other hassles.

To make hunting easier, can someone tell me what other years' and
models' seats will bolt in to the existing floor holes and use the same
power harness? I'd like to get a newer one if it will just bolt in. I
don't care about the color or material matching as long as it fits.

It's the standard power half-bench that came with the Grand Marquis GS
in '88.

This is my "one more winter" car. For the past 4 years, when October
comes I say, "Just one more winter and I'll buy a new(er) car in the
spring." Then in March, it passes state inspection and I say, "Maybe I
can get ONE more year out of it."
