I've heard that you can make some of the late model seats fit with little to no modification, but I've never done one. I know there are quite a few members that have done this mod. Maybe some may chime in. Can you post a pic of the seat?

i put a set of bucket seats from a early 90's pick-up, i made small 1 1/2" cubes from some square tubing (to raise the seats to desired height) i had used one stock bolt hole and marked other hole they turned out ok
