What's all needed to replace the back bench with buckets/console like the front? I wanted heated buckets and center console in the back.

Any input is appreciated.

 

I really like this idea! I don't see why it could not be done. you will certainly need to fabricate seat mounts and a instrument cluster to install the heat buttons. The cooling seat could be done too as it appears to just be a fan on the bottom of the seat. A new circuit could easily be created by using an un used spot in the power dist box.

With money for parts and patience it should be a smooth project. Might want to investigate the side air bags though. I could not begin to know how to deal with those on new seats. Are they already in there? Could they go off if not "armed" by connecting them to the restraint system?

I just had another idea, might want to go peek inside the rear seat of Explorer's and Expeditions? Maybe the Flex too? I think maybe the Flex might have a flat rear floor which might help the case? Could also look at front seats from the F150's.

 

I was hoping to just take the front seats and console from a wrecked 2011-2012 f250. I saw some on ebay for a reasonable price awhile back.

Hopefully it wouldn't be too much trouble to get them mounted up.

I think the back of the center console for the front seats already has provisions for heated/cooled seats in the back, as this is an option in the KR. I thought I heard that at least, I'll have to check into it.

 

Well good luck. I am concerned about room back there with full size seats which is why I suggest looking at other vehicles. Might want to get real close with a tape measure. This is why dodge has the mega cab.
