Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
almost any seat will fit in your car. What you need to do is see if you can put the 3rd gen seat brackets on the Roadrunner seats. If you can accomplish that, then you should be able to bolt them up to your car...

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
And there is always the option of custom making seat mounts, and/or redrilling holes in the existing brackets, to put on an "adapter" bracket, which is done all the time. Supreme Member

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
If they're like the high back leather buckets I had in my '72 Charger (and they probably are), then I think they'll sit a bit too high in a Thirdgen...I'd just sit them inside w/o the brackets to see what it looks like...
Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
Well I'm 16 and on the short side, i'm 5"4 so sitting high
isn't really a problem for me, I wanted higher seats anyway.
Another question, how hard are these seats to find?
I want them but if it's going to cost too much I can just buy
a pair of custom seats.

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
Buddy if those seats are in good shape you could probably buy 2 sets of Third/4thgen leather seats for what those are worth. Besides those old school seats feel like an old couch with a spring matress.
Mopar parts are rare sell those and make some cash to get the proper seats.
edit: wait you don't even own a set of these road runner seats?

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
yeah, if you don't already have those seats, then you're gonna have to shell out $$ to get a decent set...and like stated, they probably aren't comfortable (compared to newer racing seats)... good luck...

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.

4th gen seat brackets are virtually the same as 3rd gen brackets, so 3rd gen brackets would fit just as easily as 4th gen brackets.And....No 3rd gen has ever come from the factory with a bench seat.

Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
If YOU like them, and YOU want them, then do it. We don't have to like it. We're not the ones riding in it. We don't have to agree with or even like your choices. Only YOU do.
I can see how a couple of posts indicated that they may be "rare" in the Mopar community & you could possibly buy them cheap, resell them, buy new/different seats & have still have cash left over. Something to think about. More $ = more mods!
Re: 72 Roadrunner bucket seats.
Well I was only going to buy them if I could pull a clean set from a junkyard or buy a cheap set from somebody. I do like the style of the 72 roadrunner seats, but I don't like them enough to hunt everywhere for them, or spend more than I would on brand new sport seats, or 4th gen seats, I'm looking at some leather 4th gen seats right now, I guess we'll see what happens, I'm keeping my options open.
