Default New interior for a '66 Coupe

Hey all, I'm looking for feed back on putting together a new interior for a '66 coupe. The one coupe that I have does not have the original front seats and the seats that are in there have to go because the seat does not sit right for the car. Does anyone have a suggestion to what can be put into a '66 coupe to provide better riding comfort with head support? Was thinking of looking at seats from a new mustang or even out of a probe. Comments ? Suggestions ?

If you're not after originallity and would like a comfortable supportive seat, Corbeaus are pretty nice. They do have direct fit seat frames for your car too.

Corbeau: Sport Seat

Hey. Go to Mustangs Unlimited - '65-73 Mustang Parts & Accessories Online Virtual Catalog: Page 2 . This should be page 2 of their online catalog. On it is the "Sports Seats" by TMI. They are done in the original style colours and stitching, but they have added bolsters and headrests to make them more comfortable than the originals. I know they are because I have sat in a car that had these.

Those are a nice seat that look original, but with the modern comforts.

I have black leather seats out of a 96 mustang gt in my 66 coupe, they fit and sit great. All i had to do was drill a new hole in each seat bracket from the original 66 seats. The seats have the same track width as original but the holes are in different places front to back. Please forgive how messy the interior is in the picture.
