seat replacement?????

My truck has the two bucket seats with the center console box. The box is mostly good for gathering junk. The seats are getting a little worn so I was wondering if a 60/40 bech seat sourced from a junkyard would bolt up in my cab? How about the electrics; would they "plug n play"? I could get it recovered in matching leather if I wanted to.

Anybody know if this would be a bolt-on or would there have to be mucho alterations to make it work?

I had a bench in mine so I bought some buckets with the seat and folding console in middle from a junkyard. They were from an 03 model and they bolted right up. The seatbelt light was a direct plug in. I don't know if the harness for the power seats will since I had to wire my own power in because the bench wasn't power.

You should be fine bolting right up. However, junkyard seats that are in good condition are getting harder to find. I want a rear crew cab cloth seat with the headrests and cannot find anything that suits me.
