Scored!! maybe??
picked up a set of dodge buddy buckets for 400. Good deal? Average price?
What do you think?

Re: Scored!! maybe??
I'd pay that if I were buying them for a daily driver. Nice seats

Re: Scored!! maybe??
Now, should I sell the utility buckets in the blazer, or since I dont have a backseat, mount them back there?

Re: Scored!! maybe??
Won't they be too wide to fit in the back? I wouldn't want them in the front, it would make it tough to get into the back. If you don't have people trying to get into the back then the front wouldn't be too bad.

Re: Scored!! maybe??
I just bought similar last week. Ordered replacement covers today, sale at legendaryautointeriors. I think your buy is reasonable.

Re: Scored!! maybe??
The Dodge and the Chevy buddies use the same interior seat frame ,the foam is formed different so you can't just buy Chevy style covers to install on Dodge seats ,The foam has to be reworked to make them fit , also you don't have to replace the foam on either style most any upholstery shop can rework even heavy damage to the original foam (Don't waste your money on replacement foam )

Re: Scored!! maybe??
I have referenced many of Grumpy's posts on this subject, thanks for all the info. I am patching the foam on the pass. side and carving a 6 inch thick 24inx24 in bottom for the driver's side. Ordered dodge covers, i prefer the thicker bulstering,

I saw a set for $75 a couple weeks ago, guess I should have picked them up.

Re: Scored!! maybe??
That's great man, according to what is posted above, those should work in your truck.
If I ever get a panel truck I intend to put buddy buckets up front. |
