Mine are outa a old Fiero! Cheap and they work really well!

Al, do you have any more info? And do you have a pic that shows the seats? The one you posted just shows your truck, but not the seats.

Just added a couple more. If anyone else wants their seat included please email me.

I have corbeau seats, and they are very comfortable. HOWEVER, they do have one drawback - they aren't the easiest seats to get in and out of!

ok, I'm gonna post a link to pics of my seats...they are in the truck now, so I can take new pics, but these are them before they were installed.

They are under "yahoo pics" and then "some new parts". These are out of a 96 Chrysler Labaron. they are leather and power. I pulled the seats, and then followed most of the wiring I could get through the floor...and took the switch block for the seats out of the door - ripped apart the door panel to get as much wiring as possible. it was a chore, since I couldn't move the seats to get at the bolts (they are power).

They have a weird angled mounting bracket where they fit into a Chrysler....so I just got forceful with a large drill bit and made a hole in my floor that was at an angle, and slid a bolt through and clamped it down...it works well, and the seat still slides, and moves like it should. I could have bent them, or cut them off....but this makes them sit right and wasn't alot of work.

they sit very close to where the old seats were, maybe a little higher...but I'm short, so it doesn't bother me much.

they move in all directions, side to side, tilt, up and down, and they still have a lever to recline the seat all the way, as well as a lever on the back to flip the seat forward for rear access (the chrysler was a 2 door)

They are very nice....leather is easy to clean....and some seat covers help to keep everything nice.

John, if you want more pics, email me and I can get some of them installed.

Dug up this old thread cause I now have photos of my seats.

They are from a 97 Honda of unknown Model (if anyone has a clue, I'd love to know). The previous owner welded them onto thick metal plates and they are very sturdy. The seats are comfortable but I don't know how they'd compare to custom seats - they do the trick for me and are more comfortable than a lot of other car seats I've sat in. They were only $25 for the pair (I have the receipts) and are a little ugly but seat covers fix that problem.

I'm building some brackets to make a pair of 2001/2002? VW Golf seats work... ;D

Cool Comfy Seats plus it has a ratchet thing that makes it taller. I'm trying to make the VW sliders work on the EB

I would like to see some bench seat options. I know there has to be a few out there who have done it.

 

[JCBronco74]

I have a bench seat from a Toyota Tacoma in mine. I'm not sure what year they are, the PO installed it. I will try to remember to send in some pics.

There's one in the "Over 500 Links" section, but it doesn't have photos. I could have sworn there was one in there w/ pics, but I guess not. But here's the link:

I've also added it to the links section.

It's elevated to its highest setting in that picture. It has a racheting lever to make it raise.

I am looking forward to seeing your pics HW - There is a big swap meet coming up soon, and one of my buddies (a Mustang guru) has some really great connections in the Mustang world, he is gonna help me score some seats, it would be nice to see what I am getting into. (any modifications? headaches?)

passenger seat pretty much bolts in. have to figure and holding latch though--for the tilt.

flat stock adapters for the driver's side.

all in all not too complex and sits just right.

I know this post is a few months old, but I thought I'd bring it back to the top in case anyone has some seats to add to the list.
