Lightning interior

Ok, just happened on a set of Lightning seats, door panels, and dash trim.
While I do have a couple things I wanted to do to my truck first, seats were def. on the list, and I like the L seats, and I know they will be a direct swap with my current single cab seats.

Whats the going price on there things?
Seller doesn't want to seperate, so should I install the panels, and dash pieces as well, or just sell them, b/c they wouldn't match my truck?

My truck is two-tone, gray with silver on bottom, with gray interior.

Well, went ahead and picked up the set. Got the seats, door panels, and all the black dash trim for under $600. So, I think thats a good deal. Seats are in great shape, and I think they will work out well. The driver side is power, and my current 60/40 isn't, so I'm gonna have to wire that up. Will take pics of the process, and post when done. Might be a couple days though.

FYI: Keep an eye out on the classifieds for my current 60/40 gray cloth seats. And another set that I picked up along the way, which is the front and rear out of a supercab lariat. Seats are tan in color, and leather. Power as well.

If anyone is interested, the guy also had a set of gray leather lariat seats. They are 2 buckets with the console. Seats have some wear, but still have good support. If I didn't love the L interior, I would of picked them up.

Stop wishing, start getting.
In all seriousness though. If you want, I can get some pics for ya. They're from the earlier lariats, before they changed to the more squared shoulder.

Good to know. I'm still up in the air on wether I am gonna do the panels as well. I think the seats are gonna look great, since they are grey, but I really think the black panels will tie in the black on the seat. Just worried about it not matching the exterior.

Yea, shipping is brutal on the seats I've seen on ebay. I wasn't in the market for seats at the moment, but I just couldn't pass up the deal. I just can't wait to get them installed.

I should be putting the seats in Saturday. Will snap some pics then of the grey leather buckets, my current 60/40 setup, my new L seats, and the 60/40 tan leathers with back seat I didnt use. Also, my current door panels, and misc. grey dash pieces.

If Jake doesn't want them, I might have a trip planned for Jacksonville area soon, and maybe even Tampa, for anyone cough*UCF*cough in the area.
