the height of the base of the seat will have to be cut down by about 3 or 4 inches-- Custom Trucks or Custom Classic Trucks did an article ( with pictures) a couple of years ago--
Sorry but I can't remember which magazine it was--

They are still comfortable but I am always a little crowded in a standard cab because of my height and long legs. I like to lean the seat back further than a standard cab allows. I have reached "my" conclusion that I prefer a bench seat on a standard cab. My '94 F-150 has a nice bench seat with lumbar bladders that I like and would consider placing in an older truck. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 201 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 201 | i got em installed, they are a tighter fit but not bad. I feel alot safer now with the built in seatbelts. im 6'3'' and i do ok with them in. i just got to figure out on what center consol i sould do | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 257 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 257 | I have '03 Silverado seats in my '50 3100 and really like the fit. I couldn't fit the center piece in, just the seats. I took the headrests off to make it look a little better also. I can post pictures if you'd like. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 322 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 322 | RedGreen,

I'll try to take some more pictures of the final installation of the seats this weekend. There is enough space between the seats to build a narrow center console, maybe to mount a radio or at least a cup holder, but I haven't gotten that far yet.
Someday I'll recover the seats in a white or cream color. (don't tell the wife. She hasn't approved that yet) | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 17 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 17 | I have installed a set of 60/40 fronts seats from a 2001 buick lesabre, they fit perfect. the right width,i am 5"7 and find that there could be a little more leg room, but its ok for me.
These seats have the integrated seat belts, all lesabres from 00-05 I think.
