Default Bucket seatc...I'm a newbie

Hi guys...gals. I am not very car literate. I have a good understanding of basic concepts and construct but as to the specifics and in depth knowledge, forget it. Anyways, I am getting a 96 Dodge Dakota 4x2 v6 and it has the three seater bench seats. I am a big dude and I fit but not as comfortably as I would like. 1: I imagine it's possible to put in buckets seats am I right? 2: What do I look for when looking for these seats and installing them? Is there special mounts I need etc. 3: What kind of expense do you think I will incur? Sorry to ask so many questions. I know It's my first post but I plan on taking damn good care of this truck (my first ever) and it certainly won't be my last.

Thanks alot for any and all responses that I get. I am a computer guy so if I can be of any assistance to you. It would be my pleasure.

I have a 96 dakota sport that came with buckets. You may be able to find a set at the junkyard for cheap. I have done some bucket installs before on bench cars and have found that at least the existing bolt holes line up and you just have to tap out the other two on the inside. I am 6' 1" and its kinda comfortable. Hope this helps
