Anyone have tahoe seats in their truck?

I'm looking to swap my bench out for buckets. Thought I saw some tahoe seats in someones truck but I cant find it now.

Any got them in their truck?

Did it give you anymore leg/head room? I'm 6' and feel cramped with my bench?

I'm in the process of doing that right now..
I'm 6'1", and although I have enough room, I find the steering wheel to be closer than I'd prefer.. even with the tilt column.
I got late model seats out of a chevy pick up, and when I put them in for a test fit, I found they hardly changed my position at all.

I took the bracket off the bottom, and although that was far too low, I found it allowed the seat to sit further back in relation to the tank and read window.

I removed three inches out of the middle section of the bracket, and welded it back together..

Going to do another test fit next week.
