88-98 Bucket seat alternatives

[ald94]

I have a 94 single cab, and I have a perfect set of 03 silverado buckets. Do the 94 bucket risers bolt to the 03 bucket seats? My truck hada bench in it.

Hey guys,
Been looking for some seats for my 94 K1500. Do you think seats from a '99 Buick Century would fit? Seems like the Century is the same platform as the Bonneville.

Yes, & yes.
You'll need to drill 4 holes for the two inside tracks. Then you should be good to go.
Slide the seats all the way forward on the tracks before you start. That way they'll stand up on their own, & not be falling over fighting you.
Make sure that the tracks are in the same position side to side, on the seats themselves, so that when you mark the holes, you will get the full travel of the seats when they are bolted down.

*** When the seats are on the bench, and you hit the release on the tracks... KEEP YOUR FINGERS OUT OF THE WAY!!! The spring on the tracks will yank 'em back so fast it'll REALLY do damage to your mitts. On some of the larger seats the springs are so strong, that when they are released, those tracks WILL remove digits.

Your seat tracks & risers from the truck should bolt up the Buick seats, no problem. Pix when you do this?

Before you drill any holes, take a quick look underneath for anything in the way. Wires, etc.
