2003 Explorer Seat Mod

I'm looking to modify the seats in my explorer from bucket & bench to 4 bucket seats all around. Has anyone done this swap and if so what seats wer used. I really like Fords F150 Harley Davidson seats anyone know whether or not they will fit???

Does your '03 have the 3rd row seat? If not, the 40-20-40 2nd row seats from a donor would be one way to go.

im not sure the F150 seats have the same bolt pattern, but you can make anything fit. i put chrysler minivan buckets in a Bronco, jeep buckets in a C20 chevy, and Dodgr buckets seat in a 89 F250. --- best thing is to get a set of buckets you like, then adapt them to fit the mounts. sometimes this is just a couple steel shims on the floor to level up the base, sometimes its drilling a couple holes and mounting new bolts and big washers to back up.--- watch the seat belts.

I just looked at the Lincoln Aviator and saw that the second row seats are buckets with a center console in some models, will these work in my 2003 Explorer?
