Well obviously any 94 or older xj seats will fit. You can make 95+ xj or GC seats fit, however you will have to do some pretty heavy modifications to the seat bracket to accommodate

Yeah, I need to pick up a set because mine lean out. I think something inside if them is busted. Kind of wanted Grand Cherokee seats, they seem more comfortable.

Yeah they are a lot more comfortable. I've been on the lookout for a good pair for a while now. It would be easier for me since I have a 98. And you could certainly get them to fit in yours you would just have to mod the brackets

What if I wanted ones like the O.P. has? Would the center thingy come off? The center console would get in the way if I couldn't...

Thank you for the confirmation. I will be taking a road trip to pick them up in two weeks. I'll post an install video and pics here.

Those were old pics taken when I was doing the lift kit install. It gets dirty on the regular. Right now it's difficult to tell what color it is.

Happy jeep... Lol. Lioness the same color as yours, so it's all good. It's a daily driver, so I typically clean the mud off before the alkali soil gets to eating on the metal.

Ok, I have a little update here. I ended up finding a much better deal. So now, I am getting a set of black leather seats out of a 2002 Grand Cherokee Limited. The seats are in fairly mint condition both heated & power, I am going to pick them up tomorrow.

Here is the new donor vehicle.



Here is the seats.



And here is the only damage that is on the seats (Drivers seat).



So I am happy. Plus the price now is only $250 for the whole set!! That's a great deal imo. Video and pics of the install are coming for you guys.

I am also going to be grabbing some other parts off of that GC, like the rear roll out cargo cover and cargo net and rear view mirror and gear shift *** and center console lid etc...Is there anything else you guys would recommend I grab??
