- 2008 Explorer XLT
I purchased an 08 Explorer XLT with damaged rear 40/60 2nd row seat missing 40 2nd row seat and damaged drivers side seat. I was able to find leather full set of seats. The fronts seem easy enough to swap out and I was able to loosen the bolts without snapping off the heads.
The 2nd row leather is not as easy as they are fold down and up seats as the explorer they came out of had a 3rd row. The fold down leather have a plate that they mount to which mounts to the floor. I have searched and cannot find a diagram of how the plate mounts to the floor. I have found the matching holes but in some cases Ford uses studs & nuts instead of bolts into the floor.
Can someone snap a picture of their leather seat fold up/down seat plate installation so I can make sure I have the right bolts and studs/nut combinations? I really appreciate it as the closest dealer/used car place with an explorer is about an hour away.
If anyone has done this type of instillation/swap out before I would appreciate any tips/tricks/advice
