    I had posted years ago hoping for a reasonable seat swap to show up here. The air bag issues complicated it to the point of rediculous...... Gave up. Now, with job commute twice as far, I can't hardly stand the pain. Aside from selling and buying something else, has anyone come up with an answer? It's just bizarre there is no direct bolt in / wired seat that can be swapped in place of the OEM bench torture rack!!!

    There is a DIY thread in here complete with pics on how to swap in 2nd gen buckets....

    Here's one thread:

    There's another that's way more complete and step by step including the airbag stuff but I can't find it.

    Thanks for that link! The job he did looks great and there is enough comment to be encouraging. I am starting to re trace my available seat sources........ Gotta be some around here in this largely populated state!
