Front row out of a newer superduty with the jump seat, put it in the 2nd row. Really should be about the same difference with cutting/welding the seat frames to bolt in vs. your existing newer 2nd row setup. You might even be able to bolt the seats to those frames you already modified without too much difficulty.
EDIT: Something like this.

Decided not to do the dash and am now moving in a different direction with build, selling all the interior and starting over. I’ll try to get info from guy buying my dash to see about a write up to post. Going into a custom shortbed single cab Super Duty.

I am picking up a set of door panels later this week and wondering if I have to do more wiring than necessary to get the mirror controls for the power fold & telescope.

Thought they were straight swaps and bought the door panels. Guess, I have more electrical work to do. Let me go and search for that post.

So is the project back on? Decide against the shortened superduty?

Found a local guy that does it, couple days ago. Because the Excursion is my DD, I just purchased a Land Cruiser to drive and flip, while truck is torn down. Kinda at a stand still right now. Going to take advantage and strip out complete interior for updating and insulating. Also putting on 2017 SD mirrors that have been on the shelf for a while.
There is another guy who almost has newer guage cluster completely figured out to swap, so kinda waiting on him as well. Newer Steering column is last thing.

Not sure what his plan is for the dash, I asked him to show me the finished product. I might go with a 2010 Dash instead. Check out: Zachary @e4motors on instagram for guages.
He is only doing 7.3 swaps at the moment.

Front seats bolt right in, wiring harness has to be spliced in.
Had to add a switch for cooling feature. Didn't use seat warmers because no way to regulate heat, stayed constantly on and was getting hotter and hotter. I have the Super Duty Carpet put away, was planning on using eventually. Looks like it may fit right up to 3rd row hump, probably use a cargo mat of some sort where carpet ends.
