Bucket seat w/console option
 
Anyone ever use these or know someone who has? I have been thinking about buddy bucket type seats and for the price, these would be half what buddy's would be restored.

Have never seen them, but the GM `05 silverdo seats look the same, just a thought, probably cheaper...look thru the seat threads, I have a set in mine, have not yet insalled the center section until I move the tank to the back.

I like the seats, but you should look at Craigslist or some other place.
I find them listed for newer Chevy's most times for less the half the price. The only down side is your color choice, you have to wait to find the color you are looking for.

I like those seats a lot. Sure there are cheaper alternatives, but if it's what you really want and you've got the money to spend, I say go for it.

I understand the desire & the budget concerns.

Those would have the buddy 'look' for the most part except for the plastic console-lid portion which may or may-not be a deal breaker for you (it would be for me).

What was the cost per options you want?

Well currently I have 02 Silverado seats in my truck and they are OK, but because of the small cab, you basically sit straight up. I do like the integrated seat belts, but I REALLY like the buddy look, yea I know they didnt come in the 64-66 Chevy, but GMC had some but they are like hens teeth to find.

Primered: no I havent, I never get to go out there cuz I work weird hours and days.

Scoti: I really wouldnt want any options other than Leather! well no not even that, vinyl would be fine for me.

Keith: I see those on CL, but where they are, might be a option..maybe

One question though, would a true set of buddies mount in our trucks? what would need "adjusted?
