Pretty much what fits that you guys have seen or have experienced yourselves in a sc?

scab buckets as well as bronco buckets should fit. I actually bought a set of 2011 seats (I think) that I'm planning to adapt to my stock seat brackets. If your truck has the mount hardware underneath similar era (to your truck) bronco or scab front seats should be a bolt in. The crew cab and regular cab floor pans are different than the SCab.

I found that out when I replaced my cc seat with one from a sc I am a lot closer to the steering wheel now but it is worth it to have the flip down arm rest.

Explorer and Windstar seats will fit. I've hear that Crown Vic seats will as well, IIRC. Just make sure to get all the bracketry between the seat and the floor. If you have a front bench (guessing so since you want buckets), the outer mounts on the rails for the above seats will bolt right into the factory location on your floor.

Those lightning seats could be from an OBS truck. The first hen lightings were like 95's??

Did you ever get your hands on any? I have the old ***** red interior so I figured it would be pretty tough to find some buckets to replace my bench. I've been looking for a while to find some buckets, but I think I may have to result to junkyard seats, if I can find any.

Dang.

I would prefer to get the oem 92-97 bucket seats with armrests. I bought a Bronco two years ago with those seats, and they IMO are the most comfortable seats ever put in a vehicle. The bench in my 93 F250 may as well be a trampoline...

I agree with IDIoit... the SD Buckets are AWESOME!!!!!

I have back issues, and the factory leather captains chairs in my Excursion is one seat I can sit in and my back WILL NOT hurt...... the next best seats were the FLEXSTEEL seats in our customized vans from the 80's.....

SD seats. A specific year that you look for? the 99-03 SDs? I'm guessing that they changed the seats a little bit in 04 with the body style change. I do believe either way that I end up going, it has to have an armrest.

i have tan cloth SD for the 6 door.
just need another rear seat.

tan leather may be sold.
to make way for Corinthian king ranch leather for the PSD.
gonna be $$$$$ like 5k new! but it MUST have new.

any SD seats are awesome 99-now.
all depends on the style you want, and your budget.

99-04 should be the same, the exterior and interior are the same those years. 05-07 has the different front clip, and the dash is different. Not sure about the rest of the interior. Mine is a tan-ish leather, it is an Eddie Bauer, so it is the same color as any Eddie Bauer package Ford from the 90's on........
