Bucket Seats that is. I am getting tired of sitting in these thin cheap ones.
After a little research, 93-02 F-bodies don't seem to have any worthwhile bolt-in upgrades for seats. (Vette, GTO, etc) I can try to find a trans am seat, but it would be only marginally better, it is nearly the same design. So regardless of what I find it is probably going to need some custom work to fit.
Any suggestions on what cars I can pull a pair of nicer seats from? I'd prefer to keep it under $200, find a seat with big bolsters that hold me in, and flips forward so I can still cram people in the back seats from time to time.
A search on eBay and craigslist was largely inconclusive, it is hard to get a good sense of depth in such small pictures.

I'd be looking for used race seats personally. Within the past month, I've spent at least an hour straight in a Recaro Profi and also a Trans-Am. The Recaro was much more comfortable. They do not flip forward though.
As far as stock seats, the best ones I've sat in for comfort and still have some bolstering would be the E30 sport seats.
Any opinion on RX8 seats? I may have found all four for $150.
RX-8 seats are a very popular swap for RX-7 guys. I'd love to put a set in my car if I found some for that price.
350Z seats are very good and they flip but they weigh a ton.
I know they fit I had a pair in my 83 trans am. and was able to pick them up for 50 bucks.
I know of a lot of them, but unfortunately none of them come with a manual trans.
