yup, they look great in there. the color matches the paint on the outside, and maybe the carpet too if it wasnt so d a m n dirty. the fit wouldnt have been too bad but i would have had to reuse my stock seat brackets, the seats them self are too thick and i dont like sitting high up specially after i lowered truck down. if i was too really get involved in it, i would make new brackets so the seats barely sat off the floor. any suggestions? i was thinking square tubing.

Yeah, without seeing exactly what you have there.....What about welding something like "tombstones" to the floor that would match up with the tabs on the seats, and bolt to them?

LOL...that was for a lack of better terms. I meant to weld 4 tabs to the floor of the truck that match up with the 4 tabs on the bottom for the seats. then drill holes in the tabs and bolt up the seats. That would get the seats as low as possible...just a thought.

i think the way i would do it is drill the rivets out of the new seats and use grade 8 bolts or weld to new square stock and just reuse the stock studs in the floor. i just dont wanna get into an accident and get thrown through the windshield with the seat strapped to my a$$. you ever see that ernie? LOL

I got just the Raptor and haven't had a lick of trouble. Met them at TS last year and bought it, couldn't beat their customer service. Would recommend them in a heartbeat! Buy it.

I dont know how to add a link, but just do a search for "seat mod". I just did it to my seats. Took me an hour and made a BIG difference. The seats are actually comfortable now. Just thought Id pass it along if you havent seen that yet.

found a guy that will redo the seat and rebuild/fix the lumbar/back supporst in these seats. mine are busted i believe- he said he can do the whole seat and fix the lumbar support stuff in an hr and a 1/2 for $100... he is right off rt1.
