Seat hunting

[TomO]

First road trip plans require another seat. I'm on the search for a tan/neutral leather bench 2nd row to swap out the captain seats. I've found several on marketplace in the wrong color. Any suggestions on where else to look?

Forgot to mention this is for an 03 suburban.

Have you looked at Car-Part.com?

Checked there too - called a local place and I’m waiting on some pictures. Thanks!

Not having any luck. Are the second row seats out of a Tahoe and a crew cab truck the same as a suburban?

No, they are not. You could look at covers, too. There's lots of factory style replacement covers out there. I just redid the drivers bottom foam on my Tahoe.

Is that the "peanut butter" tan color? My 99 Silverado has that interior. It's pretty rare to find. I swapped my leather captain seats/console for cloth/jumpseat and it took me a while to find that. They are out there, just have to keep looking and be patient because they didn't make a lot of those.

Its the really light tan. I think it’s the lightest color leather available.

Its tge really like tan. I think its the lightest color leather available.

Neutral
is it like the color on top of the steering column or the lower part (bolster) (the second picture shows the lower)

 

[TomO]

I’ve located 1 but it might need new leather. Where do you guys recommend getting replacement leather covers?

Depending on where you are at in Indiana, there is a place in Kentucky that deals in parts for these. I follow them on Facebook but have never purchased from them.


It seems like they always have GMT800 stuff.

There's a place near me that sells these: https://www.theseatshop.com/?klv_source=google&klv_medium=cpc&klv_campaign=15314675189&klv_content={adsetid}&klv_term=562794432232&tw_source=google&tw_adid=562794432232&tw_campaign=15314675189&tw_kwdid=kwd-303261415172&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=15314675189&gbraid=0AAAAAD4R2a6PUiKuiVW1GV73xCPFaTKiO&gclid=CjwKCAjwgO7RBhBKEiwAZNP85ghNdsAFmpFtJVAmbSQyaBb6BnPIj6eX-T6fAtkCDvpkkT1snY6u3xoCi6MQAvD_BwE

I think @ORVietVet either ordered from there and/or mentioned them? They seem to make very nice covers.

Yes, The Seat Shop, out of Texas, is who I used. Their web site has good "How To" videos on doing the seat covers. Also, you do not have to remove the whole seat. Just the lower seat will unbolt and lift out.

I did my covers about a month ago, a stock cloth cover swap in my 07 and it was super simple. I got some power seats real cheap and swapped all the covers over to my manual seats...

The "new" seats were from an older truck, so none of the airbag connectors matched up and my truck isn't wired for power seats.
