Arrow Vinyl bench seat

Hello:

Does anybody have a vinyl bench seat out of a late model Ford SuperDuty, that they want to trade for a cloth split 40/20/40 bench seat with the center console in very good condition in the New York Area? My truck is a 2009 F350 , and I would like to have a full size vinyl bench seat. My current 40/20/40 has driver side electric adjustment controls , the passenger side is manual.

Thanks,
DON

You're probably just looking for any bench seat, but it seems like there were at least three different types available when I had mine built. One is all vinyl, another is part vinyl and part cloth, and then there was some other type that I don't really recall. So do you care?

By the way, what's your beef with the console?

Talking

lol,,, That was funny about the beef with the console.

My beef is very simple, the console in my truck is outright useless. Every cup of soda / coffee / thermos , etc, ends up falling out of the cup holders for the slighest bump in the road. I have to constantly hold down the drinks to avoid a major spill. I have been in my friends superduty which is a fx4 pacakage, which has a nice center console with real life cupholders. For some reason nothing seems to fit into the diameter of the cupholders on this console. Tired of playing the bartender role when Im driving ....lol

I have decided to go with a full length vinyl bench seat, because it is easy to wipe down, and has less areas to loose my cd and other crap I travel with. As far as a cup holder I orderd the OEM cup holder from Ford that goes into the dash on the bottom near the 4x4 shifter.

Other than the seats and cupholder , I love my truck. Super duty trucks are awsome.

Vinyl floor / vinyl seats / cup holders that work == price-less....lol



P.S.- I guess by now , you have realize, I need my dose of coffee when driving, no cup holder is a serious offense..

Im not sure if they will match up but I just pulled the bench out of my 2000 for a 40/20/40. My bench would need new upholstery, and cushions, it sags, was hurting my back. I havent got rid of it yet, anybody that wants it can have it! Its sitting in my garage right now.

There's just something elegant about functional simplicity!

I'm after a cloth split bench, and I have vinyl now - but not the full bench I have the vinyl buckets with the low rise floor console thingy. My only major gripe with the seats is the lack of any armrests! Or if my low console is any better for what you want we could trade consols + some extra dough since yours is more $$$. You say NY are u talking the state (I visit family in northern NY a few times a year) or the city (thats a bit to far out of my way).

How is stuff falling out of the cupholders anyhow? Are they not deep enough? I've not had any issues with my floor consol other than it aint very big. I usually put coffee in my big commuter mug and on the nice flat spot on the dash, but pop from the ff joints always goes in the cupholder no prob.

Cowboy; YOu got to run a power wire to the power seats. I happen to come across a ford xlt lariat at a scrapp yard. I pulled the seats out of it and about 3 feet of wire and the pig tail that plugs into the seat. Then all I had to do was splice the seat belt and ground wires together, then run a hot wire from somewhere (i pulled straight from the battery, with an inline fuse). Thats the only difference between the seats; bench has a two poles, and power has three poles. Hope this helps! Oh and by the by, on the passenger side, make sure the frame rails are alined together, this caused me a lil frustration!
