Console To Front Bench Conversion
Wow-- that's a big improvement on room. Is there any datapoint that makes you think the dash change-out is do-able? My two datapoints are 1) the Chevy dealer wanted $2500-3000 just to replace the large dash trim piece (that gets cracked), and 2) I was looking for someone to pull a dash to... -

Console To Front Bench Conversion
Hey gang, I'm thinking of selling my front-bench-seat LT trim Tahoe (2013). The vehicle is unfortunately very unique (as everyone has discovered, you can't get a front bench in a high trim), and I personally installed the front jump seat and had it upholstered in leather to match the rest of... -

Console To Front Bench Conversion
I've had a couple of years now with my 2013 LT Tahoe that I converted to front bench. It's been nice to have the kids be able to sit next to me. The legroom is tiny, which appears to continue to be the case in the new generation, to the extent I'm considering buying a truck (which appear to... -

Man, that's what I call a good, specific answer. Rare enough on the internet these days. Thank you sir. -

Million $ Interior question(seat)
Does "custom ordered" mean it's possible? It's not possible through build and price online, and there are many articles in the auto press over the years discussing that the front bench exists only on the base trims (in trucks and SUV's). I had heard "you might be able to order one" before too... -

Million $ Interior question(seat)
M understanding (on 2014 and above at least) was that the driver's stock bucket seat had an airbag in the inboard shoulder that prevented deleting the console in favor of the front center jump seat. I did the swap on a 2013 LT (stock buckets, deleted console, inserted center jumpseat sourced... -

Console To Front Bench Conversion
I know this is an old thread, but I did this too (put a front bench jumpseat in my '13 LT). After a lot of research, I learned a '13 was the last year you could make this swap, because the in the next gen, the stock bucket driver's seat has an air bag in the right shoulder that would knock the... -

For Tall Guys / Gals
PS For anyone else who wants to remove the visor, just be aware that the visor itself plus the flange (flat part that holds the visor and blinds-off the hole) are a single part #. I.e. you can't buy just the flange/hole cover, and there's no apparent way to get the visor post out of it without... -

?DVD in 2nd row headrests / How to access the back of the bench
Ok, no takers so far. If anyone lands here with the same issue, the back of the seat cover is easy to pop open, but there are a couple of challenges to doing what I wanted: 1. the seatback of the 2nd row bench appears to be a solid slab of foam. Literally, 2 feet by 2.5 feet by 3-4 inches... -

Yep-- I've got two of those foam things floating around. So far so good after about 2 hours driving. -

For Tall Guys / Gals
Things I did to try to maintain good posture while driving as a tall guy: 1. Did the seat lift on the front seats that someone recommend on here (from the guy on ebay). No issues so far. 2. Removed the driver's side visor, for ~1/2 inch more of visibility 3. Gave myself some lumbar support... -

?DVD in 2nd row headrests / How to access the back of the bench
Good morning, I'm trying to put a headrest DVD player in the outboard 60% side of the 2nd row bench headrest (so 3rd row passengers can watch it). I've gotten the headrest out, but can't figure out a good way to run the wires up the back. Let me know any experience. I'm also posting a second... -

Second row seat swap?
I just did this swap last week. 2013 LT Z71 Tahoe with captain's chairs stock; put in a 2nd row bench from a 2017 tahoe. Couple of lessons learned: 1. (applicable to you probably) the carpet for captain chair versions doesn't fully cover the area under the bench seat. The bare floor and... -

Front bench seat
One more question: Has anyone relocated the rear AC controls from the original center console? I need all the cupholders the kids can get, so I'm thinking about mounting those controls *inside* the back of the cupholder compartment. It appears there may be just enough room, with the knobs... -

Front bench seat
PS Here is a pic of my Tahoe with the console removed. Other questions: 1. That box that's sticking out of the carpet-- I was told it is some kind of traction control do-dad-- any issues with covering it with carpet? 2. Any issues with the bottom of the jumpseat being snug directly on top of... -

Front bench seat
Dear Massive / Abishoff, Did you guys end-up doing this? I just did it in my 2013 Tahoe Z71 LT with bose. I removed the console, and installed the front jumpseat. I'm in the process of putting everything back together, and assumed I would delete the sub, and keep the bose amp sitting on...
