    The best seats I have found for the front brackets come from 2 door BMW's. The fold forward design allows easy access to the rear passenger area. The best seats for the rear brackets come from any 2005 - ? GM third row seat. Suburban, Escalade, Yukon...
    Both can be found at junkyards for a reasonable price.
