    whoa that thing looks clean. like what mine used to be, just a lot straighter. i have vq caprice seats in mine and theyre a big improvement. any seats from vn-vs will fit, but vp-vs seats will need a few modifications to make the rear seat fit, because they are a split 3 section seat instead of 1 piece like the VN

    I have WH Statesman seats in my VN. WK WL are the same as WH as well. Extremely comfy compared to the VN series seats. Few hours work to get them in but they fit nice.

    No it should all be legal. I swapped the foams for the front seats so im still using the original seat bases/frames.

    The only thing with the rear seat is you need to drill 2 holes for the middle folding section, but they have holes there in the VQ's and VP's etc. etc. so I don't see the problem.

    Hey thanks man

    The VQ seats are nice, again they're very comfortable compared to the normal VN seats plus they look great.

    If I were to upgrade a VN's interior, as in seats I would go for somthing newer and nicer then the OLD VQ stuff, get your hands on some newer stuff, it fits in and looks way better. Will last longer too.

    pfft you suck. vq caprice seats rock. what newer stuff? vt seats will look out of place, without further mods, and anything vn-vs is pretty much the same anyway.

    I have VX SS bucket seats in the front of mine. I didn't do the rail conversion for them, but it doesn't seem to hard from looking at the rails before i put them in my car. If you swap the rails over from your current VN seats onto the new seats, it will be easier.

    True, especially if you want the VT / VX / VY etc seats for your car. They are bloody expensive.
