Default New Seats for the Truck

Do you think these seats would fit in my truck? And if so, do you think they would look alright?

Well I haven't had a chance to look yet as I'm still trying to decide on seat choice. I am thinking of using a 5 point harness setup, and possibly attaching to behind the seat backs.....if the bar that holds the mounts for a child's seat goes all the way across. If not than I'll probably go through the back of the cab like you would normally mount the harnesses without a roll bar.

They should fit, I got Vette seats in my RC, all you might need is a custom bracket so you're not sitting on the floor...

As far as seatbelts go, I have mine mounted in the side panel, reinforced with steel and on the custom bracket... If I had some pics I would show u what I'm talkin about...

GTO seats are pretty damn comfortable. Probably have to build a frame for them to mount to so they don't sit to low. You might be able buy universal mounts that would raise them up enough.

I've been looking for new seats for my reg. cab, bench seats suck.

i looked at my time slip it was 04-03-2004 when i think i saw you there. it was when i ran a 16.2 i was driving the truck in my sig. i think you were saying something like your times got worse when you got your rims becasue you had more traction problems.

if it was you the truck looked sweet with the vet seats in it. 2002yroneformula i think it would be bas *** with the GTO seats in it. post some pics if you get them in.
