Anyone installed sport seats from LMC? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jsera · 01-17-2017, 02:49 PM

Found these nice seats from LMC but I'm not too fond of the center console that goes with them. I am wondering if anyone has installed these and can tell me if the console that went with the factory buckets would fit between these

Those seats look nice. You could go with a factory style console.

Those are TMI seats, and yes, they're awesome. I have a set in my 65 Mustang, obviously different than the trucks, but they're a good quality comfortable seat.

Am I reading something wrong? I'm seeing $860.

67 chevelle · 01-17-2017, 09:20 PM

the console is 350 got to have that with these seat , also i think the mounting bracket is $$$$$$$

Still playing with the idea, they are expensive, but so is recovering my stock bench in addition to replacing the foam and the brackets (the arms for forward/back adjustment are broken off)

If I do stay with the bench Ill be doing black leather/vinyl with orange houndstooth inserts to complement my orange paint (Had to post some pics to show off)

Thanks! It's an early t56 with a lower first gear (2.96 if I remember right) and also did the inspection port shifter

You're right, with new foams and a factory style scroll cover - The high quality PUI one, (did the work myself) my bench redo cost about $500.

All the wrinkles smoothed out in the SC sun once spring hit.

LMC is local to me and they have a set in there show room. Redneck is correct, they are nice seats, material looks, feels nice, and they are comfortable. The guys balking at the price must have not dealt with upholstery before as it is $$$.

Great looking truck.

jsera · 01-19-2017, 03:48 PM

If you find yourself in the lmc showroom again take a width measurement for me, Id like to see if the factory center console would fit in between them

Ok here are some pictures. At the widest point they are 22.5" wide and the console is 13" wide. The pictures do really show the correct measurements.

FRCvette · 01-20-2017, 04:06 PM

I like the bucket seats and am considering a set in the future, but with the color of your truck I think I would go with the leather bench with orange hounds tooth. Beautiful truck already.

Ochre Ogre · 01-20-2017, 04:34 PM

I guess it depends on what you are going for. Resto-Rod or restoration. Those seat are nice but that console seems like a waste of space. Takes up a lot of room to just hold two cups of coffee.

1moretoy · 01-20-2017, 04:45 PM

I have the split bench and love it.

jsera · 01-23-2017, 11:38 AM

Sangell- Thank you very much for getting those measurements for me!

1moretoy- Awesome bench! Love the matching door panels!

sangell · 01-23-2017, 05:01 PM

You are welcome, enjoy as they seemed to be a nice product.
