my seats are junk

I want new seats, where should I order anything noncostly. My back seat stays folded down, but is reparable minimumly. My year is nineteen eighty four.

You could probably custom fab any seat you wanted into the car if you want to put a bit of work into it.
As for stock, I have no idea what you can put in.. You'll have to let someone who owns an Eagle chime in with anything other than stock replacement.

Anything from a Hornet, Concord, Gremlin, or Spirit should swap pretty easily if you can find one around with good interior. I believe the driver's side bracket is different on the Eagle due to the transfer case and front axle.

Several people here have made Cherokee seats work, try a search for it.

Mudkicker715 has Cherokee seats in his Eagle.  He is very knowledgable, and could easily explain how to mount them if you want to go that route.

I am ready to see about the possibilities of cherokee seats since they are more common.
