Finally got both captains chairs in and pretty happy with how they fit. It's tight putting full size cap. chairs in an Astro and I'll have to do some minor adjustments to get them just right but they are so darn comfortable.

Good luck, I ended up taking these out. Just too tight a fit. Went back to my other seats until I can find a smaller pair. The ones I had were super plush from a Ford conversion. I think it just depends on the conversion company and I think I'll be able to find a smaller set eventually. Just very slim pickings unless you want to drop a ton of money on them.

I have heard a lot of good reviews on the PT Cruiser seats in Astros over on Astrosafari.com , you might look into those . . . .
