Can anyone recommend some buckets for me to put into my 73 micro. I realize I will need engineering on them but the comfort will be worth it. Am i better off at a wreckers to find them or ebay or here?

go to the wreckers.
they're cheap as for generic jap seats.
just be sure to fit them properly and get them RTA approved.
Seats in my '73 came from some rice box and used their own tracks. I just had to have a certain size bolt and a 50mm x 50mm x 3mm plate on the back.
