I just returned from picking up my seats, so glad I want with utilities!!

I'm so excited, I just picked up my seats from the interior shop. I wasn't sure if I should use regular buckets or the utility ones. Everyone said the utilities were more comfortable so I went with those. Can't wait to drive it next month! I'm missimg two brackets for the paasenger side seats, so I'll have to post in the parts section. Here are my pics of my seats.

Gotta love the utilities, yours look great. Post up some pics of them in the truck....

What brackets are you needing, got some extra parts from mine. My understanding is that there were two types of utilities

very nice! I like the way utilities look in a blazer because they match the back seats!

Re: I just returned from picking up my seats, so glad I want with utilities!!

Thanks everybody. The brackets I need are on the passenger side front bucket. I need one of the front floor bottom bracket and on the rear of the seat, the one that bolts to the floor. I put some pics of what I have in the part section.
