I just fitted Paratus seats to my GQ, and they are UNBELIEVEABLE!!
Any of the aftermarket, or even from a
Grey Import, like a SSS Pulsar are said to be BRILLIANT.
Whats your budget??
Paratus, Recaro, SAAS etc are all $LOTS AND LOTS

I drive VS Comm myself so can relate to the comfort factor

The only seats we've looked at so far were at 4x4 show, 'Stratos' starting from $830, enough to blow budget. Looking for cheaper alternative & happy to spend reasonable amount.
As far as insurance goes, will
check with Ins. company

Most will be around that price. Supercheap and Autobarn has some AutoTechnia Seats for $300ea, thats about it, but IMHO you pay for what you get.
bleep your selling a house, be comfortable.
Failing that, theres a
suspension seat forsale in trader section for $400

Hi Anne
A very wise move selling up and hitting the road.
I have a GU Ute bucket seats and for the princely sum of $120 per
seat a motor trimmer total rebuilt the
seat with new foam better straps instead of the wire that Nissan use. I have alot of trouble with seats after a bad accident have learnt to rebuild the seats in each vehicle I buy to suit my needs. Jusy
home from 13000klms on the raod and now problems at all.
The savings Anne will cover the cost of some good wine and quite a few meals out
Raywanderin' in retirement. victor 2010

have you considered valiant seats? they are very comphy,i have a mate who just sold a valiant ,was a real bargain ,he loved it so much he gave a lifetime waranty just so he could keep fixing it!!!!
anyway you could proberbly pick one up in a cockys paddock for 50 bucks
not sure if you could fit a baby
seat in between as the val seats are pretty wide .
have a great trip
