    Just set in a set of buckets from a late mdle Dodge neon. Looks good in there. And before anyone goes all ape crap on me for not being a purist, just know I've got my tounge out in anticipation for you.

    The neon seats are popular upgrades in the suzuki samurai world...

    I was going to run some Audi seats and somehow came across some much easier to use trans-am seats that will easily bolt to my mustang floor pans..

    Yes, Samurai's are what the ricers get instead of Jeep's.

    Actually, I would buy a Samurai over a Jeep if I also intended to drive it on-road often. Better gas mileage and the performance is almost as good off-road (with aftermarket upgrades, where Jeeps are hot stock).

    Also, I would really like to see these neon seats in the Maverick.

    Would like to see them too. Ruth and I were talking today about taking a set of high back buckets to the upholstery shop next week.:)

    I wonder if they get all excited when a Samurai is in a movie or TV show? Do they get upset when they see a Samurai get destroyed in a movie or TV show? I wonder if they discuss ebay auctions like we do? We probably have a lot in common with them. :D

    I'm a zuk nut. Yes you get happy and sad about samurais in movies. I would have to aregue that a samurai is more capable than a jeep with similar mods and definanatly with the same size tires. I have made some jeep guys very mad.
