Has anyone ever put seat from a 2004 Escape in their bronco? How much fabrication did you have to do?

I'm not sure if it was 04 or not but close to that era. I had to take all the motors off except the slider motor and collapse it down as far as I could then welded the mechanisms in place. It still slides with electric motor front to rear, and is mounted with a 2" x 1/4" flat stock to factory holes. Passenger side was a lot easier !

I used 2" wide x 1/4" thick flat stock drilled and tapped for the seat bracket holes. I then drilled holes through flat stock for factory bolts. I bolted seats to flat stock then bolted flat stock to floor. I had the rubber bumper for back of passengers seat from something I dont remember what. The drivers seat I took the motors off and collapsed it down as far as it would go then welded mechanism in place. Then I cut everything hanging down off so it would sit flat. Only the slider motor remains. The driver seat was a manger pain but it sits great now and I would do it again.
