What seats will fit?

The local pick n pull sells used buckets for $25 each. I picked up a pair of mint 2000 Dodge Neon seats and installed them in my off road truck. Soooooo.......My '83 GSL seats stink worse than a taxi cab, and the driver's is torn. Does anyone know of seats, other than RX7 that are an easy swap? It isn't very likely I will come across another RX7, let alone with minty fresh seats.

The only other seats that I know of that have been fitted into our 1st gens besides after market and the 2nd gen ones as Hyper has mentioned are the FD (3rd gen) and the Rx-8 seats. There are threads somewhere on these. You will find them by searching with the term "Seats".

I thought I had seen mention of the Miata ones being used but not 100% sure on those.
