It can be done if you use the force.... and some 1/2" pipe and some big washers... and a hack saw and a couple extra blades... and a drill.... Anything will fit with if you have those tools.... [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Get a tape and measure the witdth of a vic and the 64 to see if you will have door closure problems... You shouldn't have any problem even if the crown vic is a wider car because the doors are thicker and the inside panels are thicker, so the seats should not be too wide...

Yes is it but no one will be really sitting in the back and seats that would lean back would be awesome

Keep in mind that since the crown vic is a 4 door, they won't have a tilt forward feature for back seat access....[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_tdown.gif[/img]

I've got a set of green buckets out of a 95 T-bird. In good shape, driver is even power...

IF ya wanna look at em, come on by. They are way comfortable.
