Smile Seats for my 64 - big back window

Hello!

I know there are a lot of topics on this, but I did not get the answer I was looking for after searching through all of these. I have a 64 C10 big window truck and would like to upgrade my bench seat to a more comfortable one and if possible with seat belts for security, also taking my kids along. As I am in Germany I do not have so many options to try , as I can just ship the "right" seats oversea and than make it fit. So I am hoping to find the rigth one with your help and advise.

Now, as I have the big back window I would not like to have the seats been seen from behind or very very little...


I have seen these here, that might fit and are not visible with the head rests




I have also seen these one with seat belts and possibly could take away the head rests .. These come out of a 00-06 Chevy Suburban Tahoe Yukon 3rd Third Row Seat



Please let me know if there is other alternatives and as more pictures the better ...

If there is no alternative with newer seats, I like as an old style version these ones. Anyone know what seats these are ?

Re: Seats for my 64 - big back window

I am currently running a 2nd row seat from a late 90s suburban. It is very comfortable and only took a little fabrication to the stock risers on the suburban seat.

Re: Seats for my 64 - big back window

My vote. I'm all about the more classic look. This looks like the rear seat out of a 50s or 60s sedan. The center treatment makes me think T-bird (gasp!), or maybe a Caddy. Very classy.

How tall are you? The late model (2000-now) truck front seats seem to be pretty thick backed which will give you less leg room. That being said here is a pictures of what I believe to be a late model seat in a big window (not mine, but I wish it was). I would try to use the smaller second row headrests (if they fit) because they are shorter.
