Run a search for Fiero seats. Some who have installed them have posted pics here, and they look real good. Factory speakers in the head rests too!

The list has gotten big:

C4 seats (Use stock tracks with minor modifications.)
C5 seats (No tracks.)
C6 seats (No tracks.)
Fiero seats
Celica seats (Slight modifications needed.)
