Replacing my driver sport leather seat with non-sport one

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for some input here as I couldn't find any while searching.

Anyhow, I have the sport leather package and would like to swap out the drivers bucket seat with a standard non sport package one. The reason I want to is that I have back problems and the bucket seat causes alot of pain.

Is it plug and play to swap seats? Anything I should be aware of? Any links to a site that sells this oem non sport leather seat?

thanks alot!

not sure, but if it's an easy swap you should check in regionals if anyone with standard seats wants to swap you one. people generally love the sport seats here.

Bucket seats are better for back support.
But Im pretty sure it is plug and play.

If they are Terra by any chance I'd swap in a heartbeat and pay shipping. Both ways!

Non-sport seat

The swap with a non-sport seat should be pretty straight forward if the options are the same. I have a 2011 non-sport, power, black leather seat if you're interested. I'm in Cali.
