Default Replacement seats

My front seats are lookn pretty worn with some rips so was wondering what all years will fit in my 2005 crew cab f250, also my truck doesnt have power seats so if i get some power seats how hard is it to make them work n my truck? And if anybody has a matching set forsale or knows of any forsale?

If it is the right size it shouldn't be a problem. It could be a great upgrade for your car. If the seats are too expensive you can try putting new fabric that is what I did. I was on a tight budget. I dream of power seats.

On my Dodge the power seat wires were under the carpet, just had to plug them into the seat and put a circuit breaker in the appropriate spot in the fusebox.

My seats are in good condition, when they do get old is it hard to add heated seats? My wife's SUV has them and they rock!

Default curious too

im curious about that too. i ordered mine with cloth and no heat, but now i have been converted and like the warm seats! I know on a lot of vehicles the wire harness and plugs are there even for options not ordered-cheaper to make them all the same. my old yota is that way and my camper too. Someone has to know if the harness is there on our fords.

I'm curious to know if the heated wiring is there. Can you believe that I bought the factory fog lights, and the harness, but the plug coming off of the main harness isn't there?

The King Ranch seats are sweet if you could find a set that you didn't have to refinance to buy

No kidding. For those seats most guys use a leather saddle polish to keep them in good shape, supposed to work awesome.
