What has everyone used that is not a stock seat in their 67-72

Way off the beaten path, but I have a '69 T-Bird powered Bucket back/bench seat w/ headrests in my '68 Chevy C/10.
I don't recommend anyone follow my example but it's different. I got it for $20 bucks plus my old bench seat back in '77. I've had it recovered in a saddle vinyl a couple times. Electrics work but draw 30 amps. Was nice when I had it hooked up. On long trips I could trim the seat depth and angle to ease pressure off my accelerator foot/ankle.
Drawbacks were 1] Ford electrics. 2] heavy battery draw. 3] Install required four 5/8'' seat mount holes in cab floor in unsupported locations. Now shored up with thick 2-1/2'' washers, but not before one corner punched thru the floor off-roading.

I like my seats in my RAM I may look into a set or a set from a tahoe would be nice also but just don't know what will fit.
