My 20 year old front seats in my 1997 Land Cruiser are way past their prime, and are very uncomfortable on long trips. I am contemplating either rebuilding them or installing new aftermarket seats.
The thing is, either option is going to cost me about the same. Rebuilding seats with new foam and new leather (or cloth) is going to run me about $1K each. Buying a new (compatible) aftermarket seat and bracket simplifies the install and could be an improvement over even completely reconditioned OEM seats.
Based on experience, which is more comfortable? Will replacing the foam and leather on my current seats bring me up to the quality and comfort of a brand new aftermarket seat?
Any concerns with going aftermarket?
If aftermarket is the way to go, what are some good seats to consider?
Thanks!
