Here is a post Putz made to me, about a seat.

I just put a middle seat from a dodge caravan in my bucket great improvement.I had to cut the back corners off the frame bottom and took the frame out of the back and velcroed it to the body alot more comfy.
 
Is this what you where referring to?





'87-'89 Ford Escort
rear seat Seat back width = 42"
Seat bottom width = 42"
Seat back thickness = 3.5" (seat back folds forward)

'90 Dodge Caravan,
middle seat? Seat back width = 44.5"
Seat bottom width = 44.5"
Seat back thickness = 4.5"

'80s Isuzu Trooper

Seat bottom width = 48"
Seat back thickness = 3.5"

'84 Ford Ranger

'91 Chevy S10 pickup

The seat would bolt to a flat floor, with the frame the bottom cushon at highest point looks to be 9.5" high. Bottom cushon has two holes for seatbelts to pass through.

Found one that mounts to the floor in a severely channeled 26-27 T

90's Isuzu Amigo back seat.
SEAT BACK 39"x21"x3"
SEAT BOTTOM 39"x20.5"x8" Seat folds forward and the "folded seat" folds forward again!

85-6 Dodge Colt Vista van

integral retractable belts (center) earlier ones don't have headrests thin cushions and backrests

i used the foam only from a dodge mini van (center) and made the fame from wood like a boat here's a couple of pics hope this helps. i also cut out out the seating area and wove in a webbing out of parachute cord
