    Charger Foxfire seats

    Hey, first time poster here. Hello and thank you for the resource of information I have received by viewing previous posts. My question is: I have a 1993 Charger Foxfire 180VF that I have been refurbishing. I am at the point where I am going to replace the bench seat. Reupholstering is to expensive, but I cannot find any aftermarket bucket seats that will fit. Lebroc, Bassboatseats.com and any other I have seen online, are to wide or too deep, etc, etc. Has anyone replaced theirs and what did you use? Thank you in advance. Dimensions are 21 1/2" wide, 11 1/2 deep. Bottom must flip up to expose storage.

    $800 if no issues other than recovering. If new wood or foam, etc. Minimum $1000 and up from there. VS. $425 for two bucket from bassboatseats.com, if they fit.

    When I bought my 1965 about 10 years ago the seller sent the bench seat back to Charger and had them redo it. He told me it was around $500 but that was 10 years ago.

    Thanks for replying guys. I appreciate you. Surely, someone has replaced the seats in their Charger. I believe that a Champion of the same era will have the same set up, as far as seats are concerned.

    As far as I know Labroc has the seat design for the older Champions for some reason I think someone had mentioned that on the Champion form before. You might give them a call and let them know what your doing they might have to build them.

    Not sure who gave you the prices from a local shop but those are way too high. I had the seats redone in my 2001 Charger 186 with a modification for $350.

    Pretty sure some of the older Bullet 20xd and 21xd seats will work. I would try to find a set and see how it goes.

    I'll look into the bullet seats. Looks like bass boat seats may have a pretty close fitting option.

    You might call Arkansas Boat Restoration in Rogers AR. I bought a 93 295 from them and the bench seats had been redone in the factory style.
