Rear Bucket Seats?

[DC3]

I am contemplating installing rear bucket seats to match my fronts. Most likely manual versions of my front Recaros with the tilt forward functionality to use the behind-seat storage (what little that exists).

Motobuilt has rear bucket seat mounts, but I haven't found anyone who's done this and can share their experience.

Thanks in advance.

Goodluck with this topic. I made a post about this when I first joined this forum and it hasn't received any responses.

I found your dead-ended post and figured mine would end the same. I was one of a few to do airbag front seat swaps and could find no other experiences then. I am pretty sure that's what pushed me to do it .

I am kind of in the same boat on this project, driven by uncharted territory. I just wished I hadn't custom upholstered my front seats; that is what's holding me up for the rear. It's a pain in the ass from a planning standpoint.

I'll certainly share my findings if I go through with it.

Oh wow... I'd love to see how this turns out! *turning on thread watch*
It would be so cool to see 4 Mojave bucket seats in our rig.

Did you do a front seat swap? Do you a have a thread on that?

Yes, here is the post. I have since integrated the seat heating control into the factory dash buttons. The resistance of the Recaro seat heaters was too high, so I installed OEM heater pads into the seats. Easy peasy.

These are the seats I would install in the rear but with matching diamond stitching to the front.

p.s. I initially installed the seats in my sting gray Gladiator and have since swapped them into the white. Gladiator.
