Interior begins

Couldn't sit idle on the truck so I sourced a seat for 60 bucks out of a 97 standard cab silverado. It's a 60/40 split with center folding storage console. I had to fab up some 2" square stock to account for the height difference as well as the center section which in the silverado bolts to a significantly sized hump.

Anyway, them is all black with gator accents, I'll need to shift my focus to addressing a new tilt column as the static one is extremely uncomfortable for me.

Here's the before and afters on the seat upholstery:

No, when mounted they just overlap the rubber window seal by about a 1/4".
