Stop by your local salvage yard and see if ones from an Expedition, or Navigator, would match up for the bolts. Or you might get lucky and find an Excursion with them, or check out to see if you can make a front set of captains work for the mid row.

That or you are going to have to fabricate a bracket that goes to existing mounts and allows the seats you end up using to mount to the bracket.

Source a location for the seats (highly sought after, difficult to find) and follow the directions in the tech folder sticky thread.

My v10 had second row bench. I took out the 2 seater part and left the single seat, and it worked out really well. Still about to fit 4 kids in the back, and had a ton of space.

I saw these today if anyone was close enough to get them. Should be an easy look up via facebook marketplace.

Those look different. The Excursion captain's chairs should have a tab where you can pull the bottom portion of the cushion up so the back portion can fold flat. Those ones posted look like they are wrong or have been modified.

I searched for a long time before I found a 2WD V-10 Excursion with captain's chairs... loved them and they are worth the effort to source/install.

The stitch/leather pattern, bottom tapered arm rest, and wrong location of the recline lever are not from an Excursion.

These were from a different vehicle and then adapted to the EX. If you read the description below the picture, it says that buyer will have to find brackets for these.

Sounds like they wouldn't fold down then. Not so good if you need to haul something.
