    Aftermarket seats...Options

    OK I've tried searching around but couldn't find out anything. My drivers seat has a bad lean to it. I've considered replacing with another stock seat but what if it happens again? Anybody know of any direct bolt in replacements for seats? Maybe out of an axiom or rodeo/amigo or something? Or even aftermarket options? I recently took the vx on an all day wheeling trip to some sand dunes and my back was killing me afterwards. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    Go to your local “Pick and Pull” and see if you can find one of these laying around.

    I thought that the Saturn Vue Redline had our seats too.

    Did we ever find out if you can switch the seats? Take the base off or whatever so they will still move.

    Though these seats are the same, will the brackets at the bottom fit? After replacing mine it seems like the fitment brackets make all the difference- not the style of the seat. There used to be a company called Saleco.com (or something like that) that made reasonably priced custom seats but I never inquired about fitting.

    I don’t know? It looks like they’re all based off the Recaro Trend series seats. But more then likely you’d need to replace the seat brackets with the ones on the VX seats to get them to fix.
