A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Oldsmobile Cutlass, 1997 to 1999. Part number SB149.
Nothing to do with the classic Cutlass
Worth stating plainly, because the name misleads. The 1964 to 1967 A-body Cutlass and its 442 are what people picture, and that takes SB217. This one is a front wheel drive saloon closely related to the Chevrolet Malibu of the same years and to the Oldsmobile Alero that replaced it.
If you came looking for the classic, SB217 is your part.
The last few years of a dying brand
Oldsmobile was already being wound down when this car was built and General Motors closed the marque in 2004. Nobody makes parts for it. The bracket picks up the factory mounting points so the originals come out whole, and you should keep them.
What the swap is realistically for
A high mileage car with a collapsed seat. Ask us about padded or reclining options rather than a racing shell.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026, and Customer Car: Subaru Impreza With Corbeau RRS Seats and Planted Technology Brackets. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Oldsmobile Cutlass (1997-1999). Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
