I'm looking for something no wider than 18" and thought I'd ask if any of you had a link for bucket seat sizes for different makes of cars. I couldn't find anything.

Thanks.

Saw some out of a mid 70's Chrysler Cordoba that were pretty wide.... If I get back to that salvage I will measure them.

I'm a big guy 6'3" 280# and I like the early C4 vette seats 1984-1991 they work for me

Thanks guys. I searched around and found that Miata or Fiero seats will fit what I'm trying to do. I'll add the Cordoba and C4 to the list.

Can I ask why they can be no wider than 18? I measured my 68 and 69 bucket seats and both sets are 21 inches wide. They ride well too.

18" because they'd be going in a MGB. I thought there might be a chart or table listing seat sizes and models. I couldn't find anything like that. I think Miata seats would be a big improvement although I've never sat in one.
