As already mentioned the metal backed seats are called utility buckets. The other seats are the conventional, or sport buckets. They are not simply a swap out affair. The holes for the utility buckets are 15.25" apart, while the holes for the conventional buckets are 12.75" apart. The utility buckets are less popular, but that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with them. They are a little wider so it's tough to squeeze the console between them, but it has been done.
The latch that you have on the blue seat is different from my Blazer's latch.
Do you have any idea what was the last year they used utility seats? I have a 74’ with utility seats not sure if they’re original because someone tried to retrofit them with sport seat type brackets. So now I either find two correct sport seats or utility brackets.
