Default Want To Trade Bench For Buckets?

My 07 has 2nd row bucketswith power fold/manual fold,but now that I've lived with my truck for a month I've decided the40/60 2nd row benchwould have been a betterchoice in my case. Anyone in thePuget Soundarea want totrade straight up? Black leather buckets for black leather bench?

I assume this can be done fairly easily with a few bolts, understanding the power fold feature will be lost. Anyone know otherwise?

I almost bought the buckets as well, but started to think. Do I really want my 140lb dog wondering up to the front. Plus I will probably never use the 3rd row anyway.

Also, I do not think you would loose the power second row if you swap with another LTZ. Some folks here love those 2nd row buckets, so I dont think it would be hard to find somebody willing. Good luck

I had a hard time finding a LTZ with the bench. Had a Suburban and a Denali with the buckets and found out they don't work for me either. Bench is better for kids, put the car seat in the middle safer spot...Carry another passanger...lounge sideways in the back on a long trip...plus its ALOT cheaper.

exactly what i had a problem finding...i think buckets are standard on the LTZ, not sure tho....I basically had to order an LT3 and add all the options manually to get the 2nd row bench.

The bench is still standard on the LTZ, 2nt row buckets are an option. Most come with them, very...VERY few come without them. Both come with heat.

I am sure he (LTZ_HOE) will let you know, but there is a 3rd row bench option just in case you did not know.

on a side note: There is such small amount of space behind the 3rd row, I will probably just end up taking my 3rd row bench out and storing them in the closet until I sell the vehicle several years down the road.
