Aftermarket Front Seats

Im looking to put some very cumfy front buckets in my 02 excursion. The ones like you would find in a conversion van. I have looked at a few on google has any one else put aftermarket seats in there excursion. This excursion is used for long trips and I really want me and the wife to be comfortable. Looking for a set that wont break the bank. I can off set the price with my factoy ones that are in great shape.

This is the best looking one so far with a color change.

That looks really comfy. I could sleep...I mean drive in that. But it may be that I've been up for 25 hours.

I saw in an older thread that someone put seats and console from a 2000-2005 suburban in theirs and it looked pretty good. Plus, I think the GM seats are more comfy than the Fords.

I have the power 6 way memory seats, or whatever.. I find them to be perfectly comfortable, just lacking in lateral support. If it wasn't for that fold down arm rest I'd end up draped over the console on every turn.

For heated massage, seats, I know the mercedes S class came with them... dunno how they would look in a truck though. They also have adjustable lateral support.

Thanks, I wonder if the MB seats have an onboard computer chips or if its driven off the trucks computer.

How would you get power to those seats ?

run power to them from an ignition switched relay.... ? I mean I'm not sure if the ex is like 99% of other vehicles where the wiring is under the seat whether they are power or not. For me, mine are power, so I'd just tap off the existing power supply.

I'm pretty sure the MB's run off that car's CAN bus so I doubt they would be a simple bolt in, but there is the off chance that the controls would work independently as well.
