New seats. Steal of the day

[UrbanRedneckKid]

I got these seats from a Mazdaspeed Protege, for only $50! Only 2 flaws. There is a burn in the back of the D/S seat, Which won't be seen in my reg cab pickup. And a small stain on the same seat.
The car suffered from a rollover, and the rescue involed cutting the doors and roof off.
Sorry bout the crappy Cell phone pics.

cool find

They look nice, but kinda thin on the seat cushions...they should fit nice though...

They are actually really supportive and very comfortable. And they only have 22,000mi of driving on them.

awesome find

Yeah, there are some perks from working at a scrapyard.

You think my deal is good... my buddy picked up an exploder disc rear, for his YJ, for $50

I would go back and grab those wheels!

The other 2 were snapped in two, and those are seriously waffled.

This thing rolled so harshly that the turbo was snapped in 2, and sheared from the manifold.

um... do those fit in a 1st gen? I'm thinking you should have these seats added to the list of seat replacements in the tech library.

It IS a Mazda, so there very well could be some Ford influence. Kinda curious as well.

I really don't know yet, I'll be putting them in, in a month or so. Gotta finish my suspension and axles first.

I'm already expecting to fabricate or modify seat mounts. If bolted in as is they would sit way too low. Plan to bedliner my floor, and find a nice center console to graft in, before I mount the seats.

That's what I was thinking when I saw them at first...they would be too low...unless you have a long back and short legs...but from various angles I don't think they're much different from the Tempo seats I put in my first Ranger...they just looked thinner from the one pic...

You might not have to fab brackets...maybe add a cross piece if they are too narrow or wide for Ranger mounts...seats are pretty easy to install so I wouldn't worry too much about it until you're ready to put them in...

I do like the side bolsters on those seats though...

Damn! What a find...

I pulled some seats out of a '92 T-bird which look really damn good and are really supportive. I won't have an easy time getting them in though... I hope you have better luck by far!


Btw, looking at your sig I see you want a 4cyl, 5spd, 2wd truck to mess with... I found the perfect one for you if you were closer. It's a white '97 stepside about an hour away from me... $900.
