    Hmm. For that price, I'd think you could find a pair of original seats and have them recovered. The factory bucket seats are quite comfortable, IMO. Seems like a no-brainer if you already have the seats.

    Possibly. But consider this year probably has the one-piece seat frame, and likely would need complete re-springing and padding etc..

    I'm 6'3" and rode in a Jeep at Tellico that had the Bestop seats. They were awful for me. If you want lowbacks I'd favor originals.

    I agree, for almost 1100 dollars one could repair the factory seats and probably have lots of
    beer money left.
    My problem is I only have the passenger factory seat in repairable condition. The driver seat is completely unrepairable and I have looked for a year for a replacement. It seems that the factory intermediate seats are scarse as hens teeth.
