Default Need seat ideas
So my seat in my 1995 is janky..I was thinking about bucket seats with a center console like my 1996 f150

How hard would it be to convert it to these kind of seats, seats out of what would work the best?

Or you can always just cut out the middle of the 60/40 and have bucket seats for free
