thanks! keep em comin. the PRP seats are alright. not really that good for a DD i wouldnt think. i also want to try and get away from stock replacment cause that would cost wayy more than aftermarket seats ya know. and anything u find at the JY is gonna be shredded.

Are you looking for a full bench, 60/40 or buckets?

Yeah.....i mean...some yards are pains in the butts and they think good stuff is worth it's weight in gold. I got my seats for $75! Center console was like $40. I don't buy crappy stuff...refuse to. Generally....I know around here a good set of buckets and center console can be had for the $200-300 range in total.

Just gotta look around and wheel and deal.

517$ is not expensive. I was thinking about getting a set of Bride's but I don't want anything uncomfortable. I have Recaro's in my car and they are comfy but snug.

you want comfortable seats? Then how about a pair of 87 Toyota Celica GTS seats I have laying around. These things are friggin awesome. Been saving them since I got rif of my celica a few years ago so that I can put them in a future project.
Or sell them since they're taking up space,lol
