Only thing about those seats is that they are very tall and cover the back windows. At least the ones I've seen do. I like them because of the console but just think they cover the window too much.

I guess I should have added that I will be cutting down the upper portion of the seat to blend with the shoulder areas for that exact reason. If you don't plan on re-upholstering the seats there are other better options (those Buick seats are very nice imo)

Makes sense. The Dakota seats seem to be the most available, so maybe I'll look into that option now. I never thought about cutting them down. Either way, I'll be reupholstering whatever seats I buy in a two-tone leather. Good luck!
