May seem lame but srt4's have nice seats too. I'm guessing they'd be cheap since its a neon ;)

+1 for the SRT-4 seats. They hold your ass like Elton John.

Out of all listed, the Evo and SRT4 seats look the best oem. Those eclipse 3g seats dont look great for the price.
BMW 3 series sport seats would be an option too, nice leather but would be more money probably for a nice set. BRZ/FRS Seats look like a decent option too for cloth, around 300 each though.
Are you planning to recover them in tan leather to match your interior? Looks pretty tough to find oem tan that matches.

Any Audi seats those are usually nice and comfy while being supportive. Might be easier to find a Tan leather in those.

I bought a set of used Corbeau seats that were really comfy, I think it was around $400 for the pair.
But if you go OEM, Evo or SRT4.

Good call Steve, lol!
Color I'm not concerned with. I'm getting these as part of my interior conversion that I'll likely be doing this winter. Plan is to convert the interior to black with black replacement pieces, as well as using dye & SEM. The seats I'm not certain yet but they will either be black, or be that kind of darker brown like you sometimes see on Bimmer's (black and brown interior, like Aarons old bimmer). So I guess black seats are ideal, but if they aren't black it's OK because they'll either be re-upholstered or dyed.
Let me know how much for the 1g seats. I'll look into the SRT4 seats. Seems like an OK option, they look really bland though in that picture. Maybe I need to see them in person.
Personally so far I'm liking the Celica seats. Evo seats are nice, but for the money seems like you get fairly beat up looking ones for cheap, spend a bit more for decent shape. Maybe worth it though, just have to weigh my options.

Rosey, I looked into RSX seats, but they didn't really seem all that light so I kind of crossed them off my list. DO you know if they made any manual ones that weigh say < 40lbs?
