bluebird4200 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone has had success in installing Rx7 seats in a 620 pick up, and if so are there any pictures available? Shoot, anyone that has been successful with any other seats pictures are welcome as well. I need to get off that retched old ass bench! I hit a speed hump and it sent me flying in to the roof hard! lol wasn't ready for that one! looking for any suggestions... Thanks!! Quote Link to comment

bluebird4200 Posted August 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Slow down for speed bumps and wear your seat belt The seat is just up to high for me...That's all Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 i hate bucket seats in a standard cab, you need a bench seat. Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Can always do what the po of my truck did pull the seat cut the mounts lower um then weld um back together but I recommend good welds not like the ones he did I broke um just tilting the back forward Quote Link to comment
Justin Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 88-91 Prelude seats were in mine... Excellent if you're 6 feet or less... Quote Link to comment

bluebird4200 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I read on some of these forums that some people used Subaru forester seats... Subaru has some nice looking fabric in some of the older Impreza's, with plenty of support. I would think that they would be good choice if indeed they weren't to high, and I could sit far enough back. Anyone had any such luck using Subaru seats??? Quote Link to comment

Justin Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Here's a really crummy pic that shows maybe 1/3 of the seat (only interior shot w/the seats)- I think I had to drill rear bolt holes in the floor, and I just used extra long bolts (at a funny angle) with huge washers for the front. Went back to the bench seat because I never got an arm-rest for the middle and for "camping situations" a bench seat is very nice. Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Think I'm going to throw my recaros in my truck once its back on the road Quote Link to comment
bluebird4200 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Okay, I didn't get much feedback, but I appreciate what I did get... THANKS GUYS! I searched and searched for days on the web. NOT MUCH OUT THERE!!!! so I found some Miata seats locally for $100.00 I bought some sliders on EBAY for $50 ( free shipping) as the seats did not come complete with the mounts...My parts are stacking up..lol I need to get busy ! 1 Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Sorry we weren't as helpful as you'd hoped not many people have put rx7 seats into a 620 if any most everything will have to have custom brackets either route you take it might be possible to swap z car seats in but I wouldn't have any clue Quote Link to comment
bluebird4200 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Oh no worries!!! All I could get good pictures of were the Miata seats. I may need to space the back of the seats up to make them appear to look like they belong, but that shouldn't be to difficult. I will post pictures when I get to the installation....On another note. Do you know where I can pick up a carpet kit for a 1974 Datsun pick up? 1 Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 No idea but someone on here picked up a 620 that had AstroTurf for carpet was kinda neat cheapest route would probably be just to pick up some unmolded automotive carpet and lay it in Quote Link to comment
bluebird4200 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 I am not worried about the money. I want a factory look when I am done...I checked ebay. At this point in time they have kits for every other Datsun except the 620... Quote Link to comment
