Need help finding a seat

I just purchased my 2004 F-250 Crew Cab 4x4 black interior and I love it. Except, that it has bucket seats. I want to find the center seat section to a bench seat and get that put in instead of the floor console. With 4 kids in car seats we need to be able to seat 6 in the pick-up at times. Anyone know of a website that would have the center section?

I'd think you could trade someone here for it, post in the classifieds

Good Luck

I have been looking for a center seat for my truck for a year with no luck. I have searched e-bay and have contacted several people on e-bay that had other color seats on there..but no luck. Seems a black interior is hard to find with a center seat.

I did the opposite conversion - from bench to bucket and it took me alomost a year to find grey leather on eBay. I don't recal ever seeing black during that time but might just not remember since I wasn't looking for it. My truck is older, but the center seat was not compatible with the bucket seats, so in your case it might not be a simple matter of exchanging the console for a seat.

That said, I know they changed the seat setup later on (integral seatbelts)so everything I just told you may be bull malarky.

I finally found a dealer in wrecked late model cars who put a set of seats up on ebay. I was happy with the transaction.
Good luck!

Sounds like this might take more work than I thought. Thank you for your help though.

I had an 03 with your setup, just bought an 06 with the 40/20/40 (what you want), also looked at some others (I think it's the Sport with color matched bumpers that the buckets come in). found out when shopping for the 06 that the only way i could get black was in the buckets, the 40/20/40 only came in gray or tan (so the dealer tells me, maybe someone else here can confirm). Possible they had black in an older model. Not much help, but that's what I know.
