Did you have to do anything for the carpet between the captains chairs? Or do they really just bolt right in?

I am very interested in doing the same thing if anyone wants a black second row bench.

The carpet wasn't changed at all, the only thing like that which was changed was the trim panels that sit around the seats and cover up the brackets. The captain's have 2 separate ones, while the bench has one large piece.

By the way I've seen a few threads here with people wanting to trade their captain's, look in the interior section.

It's up there in my original post, it even says stuff about it being feedback, unless there's a way I do it through his profile as well.

So, I really HAVE to thank BC Lightning for doing this swap and being really easy to deal with, so if you'd compare this to eBay then he definitely has my positive feedback!

Nevermind, left him feedback in the right section.

I wouldn't have thought that it would be that easy. If anybody has black leather captains they want to turn into a bench, let me know..........

Just FYI for anyone thinking about doing this swap. I put an add on Craigslist yesterday morning asking if anyone was intersted in doing the swap, by noon I had about 3 people email who were all interested in giving me their captains chairs for my bench.

Ha, lucky. I tried doing it locally and all I got were a few emails about how they "don't want me ******* up their Tahoe removing the seats and screwing up their overhead console". Even though I had mentioned my father, who would be installing these, has owned a body shop business for over 30 years.

Oh well, I traded with BC Lightning here and I'm happy. :D
