Almost 20 years, and the buckets were just too far gone, so instead of waiting any longer I went ahead and ordered these.

And thus it starts.

Out with the Old. This one has a broken back, you could sit in it fine, just never adjust it or BOOM. Also I did this side 1st in case I ran into trouble or my back gave out, and I would still be able to drive it.

Only pronlem I ran into is the seat belt bracket was welded into the OEM bracket, so I had to do some diggin in the bolt/nut pail to attach the seat belt retainer. Wish they made a incaved washer that would fit that, but oh well.

Don't forget the wire for the seat belt buzzer and light. Some States won't inspect them with the light and buzzer goin off

Looks and feels a heck of a lot better. Still kinda wary of the seat belt attachments, but oh well, they work.

Looks nice. As far as these things go, that's a fairly reasonable price too.
