Looking for beat seat options
I want power seats with cup holders/ arm rest and I don't want to flatten floor. Was wondering what people have done that has worked well

I would look at Qualitex if you want something more cush. Lots of options for heaters, lumbar, massagers, etc. Expensive but by the time you buy a used seat, make mounts, recover to match interior, make any repairs, etc. it may be cheaper.

GMT-800 seats are comfy and can be made to work. The bracketry can get tricky in a stock square, especially if you want full movement of the power adjust functions.

Bennyt's idea would probably be more practical than hacking up GMT-800 seats.

I have a few sets of gmt 800 seats I looked at them non power ones. Definitely not a quick solution. I had questioned the function after if I were to modify so I abandoned that idea now shop chairs

In 84 when I was working for the Chevy dealer as a car runner, I was able to buy a brand new bench cloth seat for $20 which I installed in my 1964 C10. A seat like that probably sells for crazy money now. I think it went to the crusher with the truck, it was still in great shape too.
