I got the Honda seats. Mine is a '74 and the pedestal is slanted and it was too high. We cut it down and rewelded it.

There was some sort of sound proofing goo on them that made it a pain. Sorry I am not a better welder. It holds but looks like a two year old did it. Painted gray they looked fine. The last picture shows my wife's pedestal. My nice little board with the EFI computer no longer fit under the seat and so I had to pull the modules off the board and sort of stuff them under her seat. Not real proud of that work.

The Honda Seats are nice, good quality, limited choice of color, Tan and Grey, Sit well and we mounted our on 6 way power seat bases. Others have report of using Middle seats out of other vans.

I've also come across some nice looking middle seats (with armrests on both sides) from Ford Windstars. I just haven't found a pair in tan...
