SFA seats
What seats will fit a SFA Hilux with little or no modifications? Want to replace those very comfortable front seats, with something more supportive.

Having a 12 second Honda is just like coming out of the closet; You're going to surprise a bunch of people, but in the end you're still gay.

PURIST !
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: SFA seats
Mine came out with a factory spec bench seat, and I have to admit that it is actually just as comfortable as the OE bucket seats......Doctor V wrote:Single Cab Bench seat in mine
Deon, just redo and reupholster your current seats. Save lots of money for your trip.......

Have you considered this.....................
Bulldog would have to go
"under the Knife"
We're talking:
6 x Holes drilled in the floor pan
Serious angle grinding to remove the front rails
Listen you can have the seats if you agree that Wills can be in charge of the above surgery bru

Re: SFA seats
I HAVE to get rid of my bench seat, as it fouls on my Low Range lever which is now way further back, thanks to Marlin and Blommie...
Anyway, I'm trying to find a decent pair of seats, but no one has. I would loooovvveee a set of SLK seats, but I'm not too fussy as long as they look good, are comfortable for long trips and don't cost R14k each! :wth: (Cobra reclineables at ATS :evil: ) The fact that they are slim to preserve the already limited rear legroom would be a bonus.
Any ideas?

Jy kan probeer, Cressida, Corolla, Tazz, Honda Civic Luxline, Hyundai Elantra, of BMW seats. Eintlik kan jy enige tipe seats insit waar die runners deel is van die seat. Ek het in my Boggom Hilux 2 baie nice Cressida sitplekke gehad, en in Kaspaas het ek Celica Supra sitplekke. Moet net om vadersnaam nie die voorste channel uitsny nie, jy gaan die bakwerk verswak.

Sounds like my Beemer seats are just what you're looking for; esp. for limited leg room and they are slimmer than than the originals.
I don't know the code;
they came out of a BMW 330 Ci Convertible
Integrated seat belts, gas pre-tensioners, fully motorised and great quality leather

I am sure there are plenty 330Ci convertables in Soweto, Alex, Lenz and other places around JHB. Maybe time for some reverse alternative shopping
