have these in mine   http://www.actionimport.com/Catalog_EMPI/Race-Trim_Seats.htm  but in all black - can get vinyl too.... waaaay more comfortable than the glass tubs, especially if you want to bring a female with you without them "commenting" about the seats...

width is just right but others put in seats from wreckers fine too - don't know which models though...just watch the width...

I used the universal mounts to make life easier to mount my beard seats in the wife's baja. Before that they were in a fiberglass manx copy with slightly lower mounts that looked about the same but didn't tilt. They should fit but will be snug - it will depend how you mount them.
