sebring, tahoe or trail blazer seats?

The Sebring seats require that you run keyed electric to them for the seatbelt actuator. A con if you ask me.

I'd like to revise this a little and ask this question:
Regarding the rear seat setup utilizing a Tahoe third row seat.

The original Tahoe floor pan has dips in it allowing the seats to latch to the bracket and sink below the floor line (as seen in post #13). Is this required?

Will I need to make accommodations for this dip in the original Tahoe floor pan if I install these in my Blazer?

Post #7 makes me feel like this isn't necessary. But I see the large frames (post #12) being built that raise the seats slightly off the floor that makes me ask the question.

Yes, if you don't build a frame to raise the seats so the bottom seat latches lock as necessary. These latch brackets are sold on ebay separately so maybe some folks are hammering dents into their floors where the latches need the recess.

Yes, again, a recess is needed in the floor, unless you raise the seat onto a custom frame.

How was Jc06vmax able to accomplish his installation in the his first image on post #7? I'm interested in that approach to avoid cutting anything into the floor pan of the truck. Did he use a specific year of seat that didn't need a recess? Could I just add spacers to lift the brackets off the floor an inch or so? How deep a recess is required for these to fit?

I answered my own question.

UNIVERSAL brackets

This is a universal style bracket system for 2000-2013 Tahoe or Yukon style split 3rd row seats; designed specifically so you can install these style seats in virtually anything; where factory brackets simply will not work. We have costumers that have used our brackets to install these style seats in older blazers, broncos, the back of pick-ups, and even adding a 4th row seat into Suburban’s or Yukon XL’s. Also includes step by step installation instruction and layout dimensions.

Also, glad to report they're still working great, even with another addition to the family. lol
