Default Replacement seats???

I want to replace my seats. I thought about the 78-82 vette seats, and that is doable. Who has used aftermarket racing seats? How do you like them? Seems like a cheaper alternative, and some of them are really nice looking as well, and probably more comfortable. Can all of them be bolted to my factory sliders?i

Yes the older seats will bolt right in. much more comfortable and better looking to boot. Here are some in my 74

Late C3 seats are also MUCH lighter.
