Default Front seats '97 Cherokee 2 door

The seats I currently have are made for a 4 door vehicle & do not fold forward for ease of access getting in and out of the back seat. I don't typically have many rear seat passengers, nor do I have a lot of money to spend on replacement, but do you know of anyone selling inexpensive, used seats for my 2 door Jeep, preferably in gray, in the Louisville, KY area? Thanks!!

Thanks maximan. Most of the junkyards in my area have no seats in them or the seats are ruined. My search continues...

If you can find trashed 2 door seats, take the latch/flip mechanism out and install in your 4 door seats. This swap has been gaining popularity in the MJ world due to the abundance of 4 door seats and the need to access the space in the back of the cab. I have never done it, just followed builds of those who have.
