i bought a set of highback bucket seats that are made of formed plastic for $40/piece. then $60/piece for the 5 point harness and got the seat pads for $30/piece from summit. only sat in them a couple times and they sue feel comfortable! i'll let you know how they ride on an all day ride

before you go snapping up tjhose $150/per seat you outta go to a couple of j-yards! there are some really sweet seats found in everything from honda civics to monterros to captains seats found in late model fords! and prolly pay half if not less for a good set of seats!

it'd take a lot for me to pay $300 for a pair of seats even if i had the money, lol
