Replaced stock radio with a Pioneer AVH series head unit. Focal component system w/a 10" sub powered by 2 Alpine amps. Weathertech floor mats. Line-X'd the bed. SCS Ray 10’s, Installed an A.R.E. MX series camper shell. All-Pro Apex front bumper w/ All-Pro skid plates all the way back to the Trans. Low Range fuel skid plate.
    You can go to a local pick and pull and see if they have 1st gen bucket seats. They’ll bolt right in. I have a 2003 Tacoma that came with 60/40 bench seats and I found Limited Tacoma seats. I just posted some bucket seats in the Buy/sell/trade section that are on Craigslist in Asheville NC. (Not mine)

    Not sure if you want to try modding seats to fit, but this is what I did. No welding no major modding.

    Yes, but also, anything is better than the bench! The 4runner bucket at least has the adjustable lumbar support and can recline if needed. I'm short so I sit closer to the dash so I can reach the clutch which means I can recline a little.

    If you are swapping seats do not use the factory tacoma seats. A folding chair is more comfortable. I swapped in power 1999 camry seats because I yanked them out of my DD that died, major PITA from a welding standpoint, but they are comfortable and were free.

    My 60/40 bench would kill my back after like 10 mins of driving, I put on some front seat jackers to lift the front of the seat and now I'm good for about an hour and a half without back pain. Might be worth a shot.
