Re: seats
I am interested too. My CJ7 seats are pretty worn out and are busted.
I don't fit 'most' car seats and really don't fit TJ seats....

Re: seats
The ones I got are the Competition Pro Seats.
http://www.prpseats.com/suspension-seats.html
Competition Pro Series
$319.00
34" Tall x 22" Wide x 26" Deep (view seat dimension guide)
Mounting Area: 14" Wide X 18" Front to Back
Built with heavy-duty firm foam
The seat bottom is reinforced with duel Pirelli straps
Slotted for 5 point harness with 2 slots in headrest
Standard removable cushion
Available 2" wider
Available 4" taller
I got the two inches wider. I also went with the option to get the seat cushion
three inches shorter (front to back). In addition I had them leave the piping off
and double stitch them instead. (all this adds to the price) They are very
comfortable, well padded, and dont pinch in the hips at all. My lean and lanky next
door neighbor came over and sat in them a bit ago and really liked them alot. The
guy at the shop is probably 6 or 6'2, about 250-275, and broad in the shoulders and
hips and he fits in them nicely and really likes them also. They do NOT recline. I
did get the slider setups so that they can be moved front to back, since the guys at
that shop cant even get in the Jeep where I keep the seat set. LOL.
Honest, I will take some pictures later or tomorrow and post them with a link. I
just have not had time yet today.
They did have some troubles getting them in the TJ (these are mounted to the cage,
not to the floor), I lost my center console, and they had to finagel with the Atlas
some too, otherwise you couldnt get to the shifters with the seat up as close as I
needed it. Also, they were unable to run a bar diaganolly across the door since the
seats are wide and even with just the soft doors there isnt room. It was a squeeze
to get them in, however it looks good and will work fine. I will have to mount a
skinny ammo can or something instead of a center console. I lost my cup holders too
- they had to take them out to make the rest fit, but that wasnt really because of
the seats.
For me, since I am short, its a little bit of a squeeze between the edge of the seat
and the steering wheel. If I were taller it would be no problem. However I am just
glad that I am going to be able to keep the stock steering wheel on. Oh yea, and I
also go the seat covers, which are vinyal and pull down over the cloth part of the
seat to protect it from the weather. I will probably use those a lot - keep the
local cats out of my seats when the top is off.

Re: seats
The ones I got are the Competition Pro Seats.
http://www.prpseats.com/suspension-seats.html
Competition Pro Series
$319.00
34" Tall x 22" Wide x 26" Deep (view seat dimension guide)
Mounting Area: 14" Wide X 18" Front to Back
Built with heavy-duty firm foam
The seat bottom is reinforced with duel Pirelli straps
Slotted for 5 point harness with 2 slots in headrest
Standard removable cushion
Available 2" wider
Available 4" taller
I got the two inches wider. I also went with the option to get the seat cushion
three inches shorter (front to back). In addition I had them leave the piping off
and double stitch them instead. (all this adds to the price) They are very
comfortable, well padded, and dont pinch in the hips at all. My lean and lanky next
door neighbor came over and sat in them a bit ago and really liked them alot. The
guy at the shop is probably 6 or 6'2, about 250-275, and broad in the shoulders and
hips and he fits in them nicely and really likes them also. They do NOT recline. I
did get the slider setups so that they can be moved front to back, since the guys at
that shop cant even get in the Jeep where I keep the seat set. LOL.
Honest, I will take some pictures later or tomorrow and post them with a link. I
just have not had time yet today.
They did have some troubles getting them in the TJ (these are mounted to the cage,
not to the floor), I lost my center console, and they had to finagel with the Atlas
some too, otherwise you couldnt get to the shifters with the seat up as close as I
needed it. Also, they were unable to run a bar diaganolly across the door since the
seats are wide and even with just the soft doors there isnt room. It was a squeeze
to get them in, however it looks good and will work fine. I will have to mount a
skinny ammo can or something instead of a center console. I lost my cup holders too
- they had to take them out to make the rest fit, but that wasnt really because of
the seats.
For me, since I am short, its a little bit of a squeeze between the edge of the seat
and the steering wheel. If I were taller it would be no problem. However I am just
glad that I am going to be able to keep the stock steering wheel on. Oh yea, and I
also go the seat covers, which are vinyal and pull down over the cloth part of the
seat to protect it from the weather. I will probably use those a lot - keep the
local cats out of my seats when the top is off.
