January 8, 200719 yr Well we can start by comparing pictures: Here is my gen 2 brat seats: Maybe that will help get you a start.
January 8, 200719 yr No they don't, I tried one time. The Gen 2 Brats are like an inch taller than the gen 1's and so the headrests won't bolt up unless you cut and weld. Everything else DOES fit though. Hope this helps.
January 8, 200719 yr I can measure the Gen 1 headrest bracket/slider tomorrow if you want. I've got 'em out in the car. I suppose you could move the lower brackets up a little if they were shorter, if you were a person who was planning on painting their Brat, or just didn't care.. I think the seats themselves are the same.

The headrest frames/sliders from a 1st gen are exactly the same length as the gen 2's, but if you bolt the bottom on the top bold hole is about 1/2 inch lower than the hole in the mount, but the flat piece is longer in the GEN 1's, so there is plenty of room to drill a hole to bolt it in the correct spot.
February 9, 200719 yr Nice info to have. The 84 Brat I just picked up is missing the seats and I have a full set from a Gen 1 I parted out to put in.
February 9, 200719 yr You can use the entire setup from a gen one, providing you have the stock gen two headrest brackets and a drill. I had to drill a hole about 3/4 to 1 into up from the existing top hole on the gen 1 sliders. The rest is simple.

I'll have to come up and check them out sometime, maybe it won't be so stinkin' cold..... or dark......... less dark would be great.

I actually put them on the day after we went yard hopping, i used the three brakcets we found on the 83 and the one i had made with the bend-a-bracket stuff temporarily, except being silver and riveted on nobody would know they didn't come in there
