    Once you swap the seats it's a whole new truck. Recommend no Camry seats unless you get them for free and you hate yourself, such a pain in the ass to install.

    I’m pretty excited that there aren’t any major mods in line for a loooooong time. I’ll have to drop some dough on tires and wheels soon, but other that that, I’ll just be making this thing more comfortable and user friendly over the next few years. Seats are definitely on the list.

    Oh... and wheeling it. A LOT!

    Always a good feeling! You have about 6yrs of fun wheeling before you get the urge to change it again. SAS is overrated, trust me!

    FRS seats are the most comfortable factory seats I've ever spent time in. They are "race" style seats so you might think they wouldn't work for comfort but I've taken numerous 10+ hr trips in them and was more comfortable than in my truck or 4runner.

    Sweet! We'll pull your out and put them in mine. I'll even let you have my seats to replace them.

    I swapped in Subaru wrx buckets into my first gen, just cut the seat frames and welded them on the wrx seats.

    Most comfortable seat I’ve had. In my opinion, and they have some really high bolsters to keep you planted

    My seats suck too. More or less base model seats, little side bolstering. Noticed that my left knee will hurt a bit after a long day of wheeling time, and there's a rubbed spot on the door panel.
    Sport seats can fix that I think

    I've heard several people say that they are comfy. Think that is what @Robertocritser has too. They were awesome.
