I have a 1984 k10 and I found some 2008 leather seats for a good price. I just wanna see what they look like if someone has done it and how hard they would be to put in
-
I was gonna do this but never found a set for a good price. I've since changed my mind now and actually want 2014-up seats. I like the shape better and I would really love to get a set from a High Country Silverado.

I have seats and console from a 2003 in my 86 k10

That looks great. Can you describe how difficult and what all was involved in mounting that seat in the older truck?
-
It looks good! How much leg room does that allow? I'm 6'3", would that be in an issue with those seats? And is there a gap between the doors and the seat?

I have seats out of a 06 Silverado in my 81 c20 Scottsdale. They are the 40/20/40 seats like the ones the other member posted a pic of.
I had to strip all the mounting brackets off the seats and fabricate my own. Took about two 8 hour days when I was on vacation so I was also working at a I'm on vacation pace lol.
As for fitting and such they look and fit great in the cab and there is very little gap in between the doors and seats. Now I'm 5-10 and all I will say is I put mine in to fit me since there's no foward backwards adjustments any more, the backs just fold foward to access the space behind the seats. My friend is 6-3 he borrowed my truck once he said it's ok to drive but would have mounted them farther back so hopefully that helps.

That does. Thank you! I also saw a post on another site where a guy took the mounting brackets off of two original bench seats and mounted a set under each side of a 60-40 split from a 95-99 Chevy, a good way to keep the seats adjustable. Good to know they fit though! I'm worried about ending up with a gap between the door and the seat and it's nice to know what year seats I can use without running into issues.

If I can get mine looking anything near that I'd be happy. Thats beautiful. What dash cover is that? I'm going for grey as well, the paint will be blue though.

Thank you. Here's a few pics of it. The color is a custom mix I made up with just two toners. I painted it almost 14 years ago actually. The dash is a new dash pad wrapped and stitched in the tweed material form the last gen f body Camaro. The dash, door panels and sunvisors are one of the few things I didn't do myself.

That color is very close to my trucks color the only difference is that my paint is original
