Seat Upgrade and Toolboxes

First mods on the work truck. Got a great deal on lariat seats and tool boxes on Craigs list this morning. Got rid of the uncomfortable bench seat!!

BTW, if anyone needs a rear leather seat for a crew cab let me know. I have one that came with the seats that I have no use for. Also have the XL bench if anyone can use it. Don't need any money for them, just don't want to throw them away if they would do someone some good.

After (sorry for the dark pic)


Weather Guard Boxes

I could use the back leather seat you have...but it would probably cost a boat load to ship it to me from Colorado.

I would guess it would be a little spendy.

Hmmm, I'm a little interested in the rear seat. Can you post up some pics of it or shoot me a PM?

Here is a pic. It is tan, and does show some wear, but seems to be in good shape. Let me know!

Spray painted seats - too funny!

$100 for the front and back set? That's a smokin' deal. I would love to swap out my cloth for leather but also would like the back seats to have the headrests in them too. I think the 04's and newer have that set-up.

Ya it was a good deal. The fronts are a little worn with a small tear in the drivers seat, but considering what I was replacing they are awesome! Much more comfortable than the bench. Night and day difference!!
