I think APC but they are really pricey.
You can buy racing seats and make your own brackets.

Racing seats or sport seats? Either way, none of them are direct fit that I know of.
Plus you will have to remove all the airbag connections from both seats, plus seat belt wiring if you go with harnesses and make your own brackets / use stock sliders. A lot of drilling and such. It's a nice upgrade but not very comfy unless you spend a few more bucks. maybe $400 on the low side for sport seats and less for all out aluminum or plastic "racing seats"
Couple pics of my seats, etc........

Thanks, about 6 hrs. including making the brackets, side panel enclosures and redoing all the airbag stuff. But going back to stock will be a pain if you use the stock sliders. Using aftermarket sliders might make the seat set too low (unless your really tall)
