Thanks for the follow up. However I get discounted prices from the dealer. I recieve them at cost thru a buddy of mine. I can't do that much for those seats. Sorry, out of my price range.
No problem. I understand. I am not still real sure what they are worth on the market, I checked some of those ebay links that biglg posted and the prices are all over the place. If they are worth much less than say $750 - $800, I should probably just hang onto them anyway. Do you know what dealer cost is?

Dam, thats surprising. I wanted mine with 2nd row buckets. If anyone lives in MO has leather casemere and wants 2nd row bench I will trade for buckets. If it is an easy swap!

HAHA, ya the vehicle itself, and the PRICE. When I got it there werent any rebates, so I wasnt going to pay what the new onese were going for. This was one of the few USED within a 500 mile radius, it was a program vehicle. I got a VERY good price, especially at the time when the demand was so high and there werent any rebates.

No one gets the exact vehicle they want. It's just the best palet to work from. Modding or upgrading is the best part of ownership.

So no one knows how to open the dang third row bench so I can use it out of the vehicle?

Yeah, I love the modding, changing everything. My wife hates it. I told her tonight after ordering another 1k in parts that I cant think of much more I want to do to it after i get these new parts on. She said, "great." Everytime you cant find anything else to do you just go get another new vehicle. However with this one, I dont think I will. With the exception of a few things, I am happy with the Hoe.

Oh yeah, on the rear seat. You could try pulling the little lever in the back. HAHA, I am sure you have tried it I was just kidding. I actually have never had the seats out and tried to unfold them so I cant help. It could be down on the bottom brackets you have to have them pulled or someting as if they were installed?

Maybe there is a way to "trick" the seat into thinking its anchored in. I am sure its a safety feature so the seat does not end up in the back of your head in an accident. I would try looking at the bottom of the seats where they attach to the floor ans see if there is a lever you have to hold while depressing a the lever to open the seats. Just a guess

So, off to the basement to try.

No, luck! I tried a lot of combinations. Even got it to set forward as if in truck and still couldn't get it to release the backrest.I know it can be done. Pics on e-bay have them upright.
