Default help me with choosing seats

these are my narrowed down options due to price. i'm on a serious budget but also need a replacement due to my drivers side seat splitting at the seam. i don't want to get a cover because 1) they never fit like they should, 2) hard to keep them on, 3) to get a decent quality i'd still drop at least $100.

each picture/price includes both d/p seats and have slider brackets also. none of these are specifically for an fbody but are universal with the correct measurements.

i personally like the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th options. i am not too concerned with the comfort factor, i can make due no problem. but to me style is a factor.

whatever you like and can afford is the best seat for you....u can always upgrade later when money, comfort and style become a factor

2, 4, or 5 for me. i don't like anything that stands out to much. i'd look at the weights too to help decide.

i like the 4th set, and is the 250/set mean that they are selling them as a pair (both front seats) if so that looks like a good deal... any way its allot cheaper than what I’ve found going through the internet..

Kirkeys are nice but I still want the adjustable option. The 4th style is believe it or not from APC, weird I know. I'm getting them with the black vinyl accents and black velour mid sections. Then I'm buying elsewhere some fbody brackets to make fitment easy.
