Seat swap for tall guys help

Hey guys I did some searching and found plenty of threads of bucket seat swaps but no one really saying which ones helped them with head room.

I'm 6'5 in a 93 regular cab with a 60/40 bench seat. Just looking for ideas for a little more head room. Thanks guys

I am nearly 6'3 and I'll tell you what I did. I sold my reg cab and started buying excabs. Fixed that problem.

Haha yeah I was thinking about that. I just got this truck about a month ago and it's set up how I want it. Minus the cab space. But if I can't find a solution that's probably what I'll end up doing

'90s civic seats are supposedly a little shorter in hight and bolt up pretty easily.

I'm 5'11", and imo I'm the tallest person that could possibly be comfortable in a reg cab, regardless of which seats are installed. It's even more uncomfortable for the passenger.

Im also 5'11'' and i have buckets in my single cab. I hit my head really often getting in. And im probly the tallest i would want to be with those seats in a single cab. You sit up about an inch or two higher.

look for a set of 93+ del sol seats, they sit low in the cab and should have the room u are looking for, but still getting in and out might bump the jam.
