Aftermarket bucket recommendations for k5?

[307Norfolk]

Anyone got aftermarket seats in their k5? Looking for hands on experience, can't find any factory seats near me for my 83 might just have to bite the bullet and go aftermarket.
Can't stand the tan leather seats the po installed (terribly I might add)

2000 and up Silverado seats, they bolt in a little low by if your tall its nice.

If you have the coin to throw at the easy button, Merricks seat brackets will fit just about any coupe/convertible or shorter car-style seat in there. If you put the taller SUV/Truck seats on those they'd be crazy high up. I prefer to fab things though, so i'm stubborning my way through the process of installing 2014 denali heated/cooled seats in mine.

Mine has buckets from a 90's era Tahoe/Yukon. Very comfortable but still has that "GM" look, even the burgundy color of the seats matches the original interior pretty closely..

I put some PRP in mine. Used factory mounts w/ some added steel and welding.

Which model did you go with? Happy with them?

It's been a few years - but I 'think' it was the Enduro.. Yes they're comfortable, and so far the material hasn't shit the bed in the AZ sun.

2022 Honda Odyssey. Slide, recline, fold 90° and built in belts. If you use the Honda tracks you can even get them to slide left and right. Which I might be doing. Will have to fab mount.

I used Procar Scat seats in my C10, they even make brakets that make it a bolt-in job. Then a center console/jump seat from a '14 Silverado.

Those look great

2nd vote for the Odessy seats. completely self-contained. Mounting bracket is easily made. You can make a secure storeage area with a little extra work, The seats were a little low for me, so the blocks just raise them up. You could also just bend the metal a little higher. Here's how I would do it:

Multiple vehicles with Recaro Seats , no complaints.

Saw custom made seats at a car swap meet, made in Greece to order...nice looking product.

Blazer is OEM , with Kat skynz leather interior.
