I miss the center console from my 07.5 1500, now that I have my 06 dually.

Has anyone tried to swap out the front seats from an 07.5+ truck into a classic body style truck?

Its your choice to wear a selt belt its not a big deal for me either way but when you get pulled over for driving at bar time or whatever and your not able to put on your seat belt because you no longer have them you might be in a tight spot.

I think Adam (Malibu795) sells a seat belt extension though its basically a section of seat belt with a male and female end 42" in length and allows your backseat belt up to reach up to the front. Dont know if he still makes them or not though.

All you have to tell him is that swapping to the newer seats means he looses seatbelts as they are in the seats of his 06 and in the b pillar of the 07.5 and up lol.

Sebas, its not that simple. The biggest reason being the seatbelts as mentioned

why would you even bother trying?? There is no point in doing this, because the obvious damning road blocking being no seatbelts.......

I see so many people ask this question (oh can I put 07.5+ seats in my 01-07), and they clearly havent even given 2 seconds of thought to it, because the seatbelt issue is so obvious, its staring you right in the face.

Hence why Adam makes seat belt extensions, those in the back seat are screwed though.

I think you misunderstood... The title for the thread is misleading. We are wondering about changing out the center seat/console from the rigid, seat to the seat/armrest/under seat storage version in later model trucks. I went and bumped my thread just for the heck of it.
