Adding rear seats to access cab

Still have them?

 

Yes I do. Ill take some pictures and send you to them in a PM

 

I just finished pulling the rear seats on my access cab to recover them and add sound deafening. Swap out should be straightforward- all mounting holes are there. No sensors to worry about.

 

Deadening...

 

OK so I did the same thing, bought a 2019 access cab utility package. Was just for me and the wife, needed to go to work and home.

Didn't plan on kids, but they happen when you go on drinking vacations with your wife.
Told myself I'd buy the seats off some one or pull em for a junk yard.

Well the baby is due next month I never did any of it. So I traded it in for a 2020 v6 4x4 double cab. Best decision I've made.

FYI I broke even on the trade in, just lost the payments I've made the past 12 months.

 

Yea I would’nt mind a crew cab but it is what it is. I like the 4 cylinders and need a long bed. Can’t get a crew cab long bed in the 4 cylinder .

 

So, got mostly everything in the mail today. Minus the storage lids which mine won’t work and I will need the others. There’s a problem. The seat belt retractors are stuck. I can’t get them to move , and I will need them to extend to bolt in the bottom section. Anyone know how to unstick them?

 

No, they’re not mounted . I won’t be able to mount them as they are because I have to be able to extend them out to bolt the bottom section of the belt to the bottom of the cab. I’ve tried every which way to get them to come out

 

It’s impossible to bolt it . The buckle won’t extend down far enough to allow it

 

That part attaches at the bottom.

 

Lol you’re right . And for whatever strange ass reason I put them in place and they’re not stuck anymore . I’m not questioning g it lol

 

Coming along nicely now. Missing a couple bolts seller forgot to give . No worries I’ll go to hardware store and get some . All bolt holes are there and tapped . Pretty basic procedure so far

 

Remove rear panel -

Just simply pull it off , it’s held on by plastic clips





Remove seat belt panels on side pillars -

Again , they’re held on by small clips , there is one bolt attaching it to the pillar . Remove bolt and pull off


Remove trim directly beside the seat belt panel on the roof. It’s surrounding the upper door latch. Remove both bolts and pull trim off.





Get seat bottom and line up bolt holes . Take a razor blade or other cutting utensil and cut a hole for the bolts.





Install seat bottoms.


Install headrest - 4 bolts hold it on .





Install seatbelts . Install the retractors at the bottom of the pillar/cab. Run the belts through the hole of the panel. Then take the bottom of the belt and bolt it to the retractor at the bottom. The one bolt will hold the panel and retractor together .





Now, I don’t have the proper storage compartment for underneath the seats just yet. Like I stated earlier the seller forgot to add them, so I will have to add it and the little center console when I get it. However if you have it now, you can install now. Remove the storage compartment you have now. There is several trim panel clips you will need to remove. Simply pop them out , and install the proper storage compartment and console. Now is also a good time and add the bottom seatbelt buckles.


Re install backing panel. They’re a couple small bolts holding this particular one on. The rest of it will snap in place.


You’re all set.


Overall this is an easy job. If you have an SR model and want seats and have basic handtools and a couple hours (if that) to spare , go ahead and go with it.

You were correct. I asked for them when u first posted this but they had already shipped . Seller is sending them out. Although the ones I have will “work” u have to remove the lids and the console doesn’t fit it

 

Finished !!

 

Looks good! I'll make sure to not let my wife see this thread.

 

@1776Taco
OP, so what are you going to do with that $8500 you saved? Great negotiating tool to use on the wife, LOL.

 

Lol. Head to the casinos mane ! I’m probably going to buy a center console vault next so I can put a full-size pistol in there!

 

Where did you buy this? was this a private seller or online like an eBay
