Default Seat Upgrades for 2002 RCSB?

Guys anyone know a good seat upgrade for a 02 RCSB? The one I bought had a vinyl bench & I would like to swap to something newer. Maybe a console, maybe later model seats, maybe trailblazer ss seats?

Any cool ideas would be appreciated! I dont mind them being electric, I'll wire them up just long enough to slide them all the way back!


Thanks

Just food for though but here are my opinions on the seats I have. My 2000 Silvy came with the 40/20/40 manual cloth seats with the center jump seat (which I have since changed out to a newer center console). To me these seats are way more comfortable than the 8-way adjustable leather buckets with the fold down armrest in my 02 Tahoe. I really do not like the seats in the Tahoe. Then again, I am a big guy (6'4", 300lbs) and several passengers have stated how comfortable they are. However, I much prefer the simple seats in my truck.

In a GMT900, sure. However, the GMT800 have the seatbelt integrated into the seat where the GTO seats don't.

Same problem I have since I'm also looking into seats.

Katzkin seat covers IMO. I got my leather seat covers from CK resto, they were a little cheaper than the Katzkins but I like them. Just get them for the individual buckets and replace the center seat with either a fold down jumpseat or a SUV center console.

We have a set of awesome GXP Solstice seats to install, but they dont have integrated seat belts either.

The bad thing is because it's the work truck bench it doesn't even have a fold down center console so a nice recover kit wont work

You can still replace it with either a fold down jumpseat or a SUV/extra cab center console
