Hello,
Looking for the OEM style. but would consider other options, as long as they came with bases. Colour of finish not important, as would be getting stuff redone.

cheers and beers

There are at least three different "OEM" seat bases used in GMC's.

The most desirable are the late model "offset" bases. The middle years are like the late ones but have a centered swivel point. The early ones are (most likely) not the ones you desire.

There are other bases used in SOB's and conversion vans that might work better for "non-front-seat" use. Some have quick releases to easily take the seats in and out. I see them at the pick-n-pull quite often.

Hello,
We are looking for the bases for a 77 Palm Beach. Not sure if the floor mountings are the same, on all the seats ????? Do the seats all fit the different bases, or were there changes there ?

cheers and beers
