These are a bit taller than Camaro seats.

Re: high back buckets

Seat backs show in all the trucks since the '90s,K/5s since the '80s. I like the look of not seeing the seats,but it shouldn't be that big of a deal. More comfort could make it worth sacrificing that look. Car headrests started in '68,so not exactly off on the era thing. Them there's always dark window tint

Re: high back buckets

You could always remove the head rest

Re: high back buckets

Fitz's seat compliment his truck nicely and look comfy too. Keep in mind his is a small window cab too. Maybe more visible in a larger panoramic window.

Sammy they are comfortable but if that cab were a panoramic window I would have chosen something with a lower back and no headrest.
