Nice truck!

Do the head rest push you forward at all?

I've been looking all over cardomain.com trying to find the year and flavor of Trooper that has that seat in it. I'm in love. If you can tell me anything about the Isuzu that the seat came from (Year, Trooper vs. Trooper II, 2-dr, 4-dr, manual, auto) I'd appreciate it.

im not for sure the year it was 90+ though .. it was a four door and a stick shift so the seat has the notch kinda like the stock repu seat does ..i can get more pics if u need them... maybe it says somewhere on the bottom of the seat ill check.. i got it at a pick a part for 40 bucks..

seat fitment

guys, look and the glass right above the handle,,,now you notice that you can see the seat. It looks like you can see 6 yo 8'' of it,,,now, that means that seat is pushing you forward quite a bit,,,,and the headrest should be too,,,now,,Not calling ya a liar lol, but my son is 6ft also and barely fits with my seat,,,now go look at my pictures ,,,andy's,,,,,,look and the 2nd one from the right on top,,shows my panel from the inside,,,doesnt even break the window part,,,,hmmm,,,,just asking cause when i saw thought i was gonna get the seat in a heart beat,,,would love to meet ya and take a look myself ,,just saying,,,,,, thanks ,dont mean to offend,,,,,,

seats are a big problem for repu owners , i"ve tried alot of variations and the one im working on now seems to be the best i have found . 70-74 240 z buckets and i chop the high back down so it fits under the brace under the back window. its a cheap way to go because the sets are a dime a dozen new covers are a little over 100.00 and its about 20.00 a seat to alter the covers height

Back in the day

When mini-trucks were all the rage, Honda CRX bucket seats were the bees knees. They're thin and take up less room than many other bucket seats.
