Identify seat type please

This is the interior of my 1989 K1500 Silverado. The code sheet in the glovebox shows A50, which I presume means bucket seats. However, If I flip up the centre section, I can seat three adults. What is the name of this seat type? I'm looking to get a latch for the lift-up centre cover that's broken, but I don't know what to call it.







So, seat type? Buckets? Split bench? Something else?

Name of centre section which isn't really a console, but is more than an armrest?

Thanks.

That looks like the center console from a mid 90's dodge truck put between the original bucket seats.

Re: Identify seat type please

I think I just found out what it is on eBay. The one for sale there now is missing the plastic compartment lid, but otherwise, it looks identical.

They say it's from a 1999-2006 Silverado. The option code is probably AE7.

Now that I know what it probably is, maybe I can find a replacement latch.

Thanks.

NBS (new body style) GM was going to be my guess. It looks good in there.

Re: Identify seat type please

Seats are stock for the year, middle seat came out of a 99-06 model GM truck. Latch is very common to break on it. The latch piece is actually kinda hard to come by, easiest bet is the junk yard. It is prone to sticking which usually results in the owner beating the crap out of it to open it, which will break it. A little oil on mine and I never had that problem, my brother was more forceful, and went through a couple.
