Bench Seat Identification

I have a newer bench seat that a PO installed in my '65. I would eventually like to get new upholstery for it but need to identify the era of truck it came out of.

Does anyone think this is an 80-86 bench?

Can't help with the year but I like that design/embroidery and color/material combo.

It doesn't have separate headrests which, if factory, means it was made before a certain date *I believe in the early 90s* when they became required by the gov.

IOW from the looks of it, it fits our gen.
