Has anyone tried to switch the middle buckets to a bench in a 2007 Uplander? I have a regular length LT, and it looks like there is no bench option for the middle section. Thanks in advance.

I think you're right! I know with the base model LT (1LT), the 3rd row is a split bench seat, but the 2nd row are bucket seats (downgrade from the captain's chairs that appear in the 2LT trim).

GM does not make a bench in the middle anymore since they cannot put a shoulder belt on the middle seat, hence only a 7 passenger now, no more 8 passenger....
