Trying to make a decision. Do I get original seats done at 300.00 a pc or get new at 99.00 a pc ?? If I go aftermarket I have to go to black which was an option for my yr but I will have them Monday. Reupholstered original which only thing original would be the frame will be 2 to 3 weeks but close to original color ...help

You could always get the new seats reupholstered if you don't like them and probably be money ahead.

Hmmmmm wonder what these are
To my surprise the drivers side bolted right up
Pass side ..... Not so much
Had to fab some plates to make it work, will paint them later
Is it normal that the pass side is higher than the drivers side ??
Still a bit bummed I used aftermarket seats. My plan is to get the originals done this winter. I kinda like the black tho so need to decide on original blue or the black

Every old jeep i have been in the drivers seat was a bit lower than the passenger. I always attributed it to someone being in the drivers seat more and it getting pounded on country/farm roads. Maybe its supposed to be that way?
