I would like to change the front standard one and a half passenger
seat in my 79series l'cruiser to a more comfortable bucket
seat with a console between the seats.
Just wondered if some one could help me with the most practical way of doing this? Would the passenger
seat from an 80 or 100 series fit?
Thanks for the help.
Cheers Tony

Tony,
I went with a set of second hand Recaros and had them fitted by Willshires in
Adelaide. Cost about $650 the pair for the seats and $290 each to custom fit them with runners and a new
seat belt mount. Those captured nuts for the RHS rear passenger runner bolt aren't there any more :-(( The Recaros can be reclined forward with a lever either side which is handy.
I made my own plywood console and glued it with carpet to cover up my dodgy handiwork! I used two pushbike drinkbottle holders to hold our water bottles at the front of the console (more practical than cupholders).
We're happy with it.
Cheers
phil
