I have looked at those as well. I like them. Do a search, there is a K5 our style with them installed. They look as close to the original that I have found for aftermarket. My seats are trash and these Procar may be the way I go too.

I purchased these seats from amazon for 242.00 a piece. Pretty reasonable considering how much It costs to get stuff reupholstered. You also have to purchase seat adapters but im pretty sure if you have some scrap metal and a little talent you could make your own. All the parts have come in so I will be putting the seats in this coming weekend.

Here is a link to amazon with the seats.

They look pretty nice. If they have the steel inserts On the bottom you could drill pilot holes and reuse your stock brackets maybe. I'll watch to see how this turns out. Mine are garbage and mismatched.

There is a blazer on this forum that has the seats I am putting in. He used the factory brackets some how. It probably wouldn't be that difficult but I have no welding tools to fab something up if I had to. That's why I went with the procar brackets.

I ended up ordering a pair a couple days ago. Got the last pair on amazon listed for $242, thanks for sharing. The truck doesn't run yet, but it'll have some sweet seats!

I'm planning on purchasing the same seats. I first saw them installed and BIgbad72's rig. I think they look close to stock and alooooooot less expensive that originals. In this thread you can check them out mounted , they look really nice.

How close to the factory bolt holes were the ones in the procar brackets ? It also looks like you only got 3 bolts in the pass side ?

I know the front was dead on with the factory bolt holes. Not sure about the back. Yeah I only got 3 holes in cause the back side is rusted pretty bad. That's something I need to address at a later time. For right now 3 will work.

Thanks for sharing !!! Those brackets look a little flimsy ?

Not sure how they will hold up. Seem fine to me. Time will tell.

I ordered a pair of these seats and one bracket(thinking I would make my own from the same dimensions). Should have them here next week

I didn't realize that the new seat adapters do not utilize the factory brackets.
It looks like the entire passenger seat(with bracket) no longer tips forward. I'm guessing these new seats tilt forward on their own, likely with a forward slide.
So how accessible is the rear seat, now that you have a bolted down bracket?

Yeah the seats do not tip forward, but slide front enough for the back to be accessable. If you had the ability to make your own bracket I would absolutely try to make the stock ones work. After driving around in the blazer the last couple of days the height at which I sit at is getting pretty uncomfortable. I need to take a couple inches off the Procar adapters. Then again I am 6 foot tall and am all torso. Let me know what you decide when you get everything.
