Anyone use car seats?

Has anyone used car bucket seats or have any pics with them installed? Not too sure why everyone wants truck buckets. Any issues using seats from a car? Maybe some nice VW gti recarros?

Re: Anyone use car seats?

I plan on ditching my utility buckets at some point and getting some aftermarket buckets with recline/lumbar and mounting them to the factory brackets. I see no problem with it. There are some nice ones that are sold for Jeeps with durable fabrics and such that should hold up to an open-top rig.
