anything from the stickied list will work using the same generation bucket/60/40 seat tracks as your truck. you will have to drill two holes per seat (near the middle of the truck)

Will a mercury mountaineer seat fit?
I found a pair at a junkyard. They are the only nice ford style seats there . And will it cause problems if they have power slide and bolster

One more thing is since my truck is a standard cab will I run into problems with the headrest hitting the window? The mercury mountaineer seats look just like a ford explorer Eddie bout edition just in case that makes a difference.

Just found me some '01 Explorer seats.... so far got the driver's seat in place, and the damn airbag light is flashing... 4 times. Bad enough I have the ABS light, now this.

Any proper fixes besides putting tape over the light?

Switched the buckles with the ones on my old seats, finally turned off the light once and for all.

Pix tomorrow of the final product.

interesting. I was wondering this and spotted a set of seats from an explorer here. I just didn't know if the airbag or other lights would pop up. Good to know you can just swap buckles and no worries. Please post some pics

Also would like to know about the Stang seats. A friend of mine introduced his 98 Cobra to a tree and might part it out.

They should fit pretty easily. I got the full size seats to fit in my single cab

Has anyone tried any certain seats and wondered how they lived without them? I'm looking for replacement seats and am hoping to find the most comfortable and the best look
