Those ARB Paratos jobbies are sposed to be pretty good I hear. To get anything half decent you're gunna be looking a grand each side I would think, for new seats. Then there is the option of 2nd hand seats, but I don't know what brand/s would fit.......any seats you find would need to be modified (brackets etc) I would imagine and that would probably be a breach of some stupid ADR etc!!!
Good luck.
Cheers
Roachie

Lizard,
We have an 80 series tojo, and the seats are a bit ordinary, considering the original purchase price.
Went to Motorcraft, in
Brisbane, a few years ago, and had an inflatable lumbar support fitted in each side. This has made a vast difference to comfort, and only cost a couple of hundred $'s.
Add the sheepskin covers mentioned above, and you're in the lap of luxury.....
well under a grand.
Hooroo...
