I definitely agree, the armrests suck and the seats aren't that bad. the most comfortable of any of my previous cars. I've always gotten lower back pain on longer trips in other cars, but never in the JK yet. I won't be switching them out anytime soon but I could see how coming from a vw or Audi, they might not be as good as you're used to. Coming from a pos stratus, they're amazing.

Waaaay better than my 2005 Focus ZX5 (At some point they took out the adjustable lumbar support and didn't put in non-adjustable support. Kills my back.)

Order them from 4wd .com . Seats (lg-1) are the wide ones and brackets with heat put in 1300 clams.

Thumbs up

Them there are pretty heavy clams, but I'm sure worth every penny. Would the front seats to the back work with a two door too?

Having drove a 1996 F-150 4X4 with bench seat . My JKU's seat's feel very comfortable on my lower back. The bench seat alway's hurt my back .

I came to my JK from a 2008 WRX. The WRX seats were sooo much better, but I got used to my JK seats and they aren't that bad. Just fiddle with them until you get the setting you like.

Default Seats I liked best

The seats in my F350 DD and Explorer Limited were the best I have had. Great 2 person memory electric leather in the Explorer that fit my fused spine just right. I wonder if they would fit in the JK?
