Hello everybody,
I'm super stoked! I found that the seats from a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX fit perfectly on my 66'. They are super sporty looking and manual too! The lever for the seat adjustment rail is on the side instead of the front, which helps not to reach under the seat to adjust. The driver side seat fit perfectly, I just had to drill new holes. I had to fab the existing passenger seat base a little. (I already had after market seats). I'll provide actual pictures of my Bronco soon.

The seats fit perfect! I had to add a few spacers on the passenger rear right hand corner. I also fabricated a small piece for the front of passenger. I cannot believe how good they fit!

Any one tried some mustang convertible seats like 2003 2009. Worked on one today. And kept thinking how easy these would be to stick in one plus the back seat could be made up to fit to.

$40 per seat from the junkyard. Got the passenger side bolted down, just need to drop the tank and figure out how to mount the drivers side
