I looked at some bucket seats I believe that would fit well in my I would need to get them re covered in another material and color

They are out of a 92 F@#D escort they are red I'm thinking of getting them taking off the head rest and having them covered in a black material

I found a pic of some grey ones on ebay what do you guys think
oh ya I can get them for 30 bucks

What are you going to use for mounts?

I can vouch for their comfort. I have a 95 Escort with the same seats in it that I use for commuting, (can't afford to drive the 130 miles per day on anything else). The seats are very comfortable and they have held up well as I have 240,000 miles on the car.

If you recover them as you plan, then they should look good.

Ditto to what JimKshortstep4x4 said. My '94 has 186,000 miles. The seats are still comfortable and still look good. Please post a how-to and some pictures if you make the swap.

I still need to take measurements and figure out how to bracket them I also want to have a fold down seat in the middle so I can still fit the ladies in thats my 4 and 3 year old daughters.

Heres a pic of my seat now it not bad it just reminds me of riding the school bus when I was younger.
