bucket seat brackets?
« on: August 08, 2007, 09:45:15 am »
i recently installed a set of bucket seats out of a 96 chevy truck but i had to use the original long bracket from the bench seat to mount them in.... which looks terribleand is keeping me from fabricating a nice center console. where can i find some brackets/guides that hold in oem bucket seats for our generation truck?

Blazer No, Suburban yes.  I can get universal seat brackets from Rod Doors, but you would have to make the mounts for them.

Only out of a salvaged truck.  I can check the dealership which is the only other option.
