Ok wasn't sure if this post belongs in here or not,,,, Buttt.... I was wondering what kind of seats can be used in a 64beetle, currently have gemini seats on brackets, in my baja and they suck!lol. Was wondering if anyone had some sugesstions as to which are the most comfy, easy to install highback seats, pref cloth trim, not sticky sweaty vynal. Also what would be realistic prices I would expect to pay at wreckers etc. About the only thing I like about my current seats is the height, (vw seats make me feel like an old granny peeping over the steering wheel, on my way to do the shopping,,yuk!lol.
thanx, heather!
people like seats out of the MR2 , prelude and accord i think! it all depends on you but most jap seats are good u could also try SAAS or recaro

I am using what I believe is Honda Prelude seats. They cost me $150 for the pair.
I bought them from Mark Gibbs Panel House at slacks creek. I found them to have the best prices by far.
