  • Verify seat track floor mounting bolt layouts, which frequently differ between regular cab, extended cab, and SUV body platforms.
  • Inspect bottom seat frame wiring connectors to ensure power adjustment, heated/ventilated elements, occupancy sensors, and side airbags match your harness.
  • Check leather or fabric upholstery for seam tears, heavy bolster wear, and verify bolster cushion foam hasn't collapsed or degraded.
