OEM seats out of a donor truck

[thiccboi]

Found a seat of front seats of a gen 1 with heated and cooling. No tears look in decent shape.
They’re asking $700. Fair price for a pair of ford raptor oem seats ?

If you’re just replacing due to cracking leather , I would just get new covers. https://leather-auto-seats.com/prod...er-seat-covers-driver-bottom-lean-back-black/

Talk them down to 500. Probably easier to change out the entire seat than put new covers on. There can't be that many people looking to buy Gen 1 seats.

As old as my truck is, seats are not like new, but good shape.
I like them a lot.
I have to look at why the heat isn't working on driver's.
Seem comfy enough and hold me in place all right

Probably the heating element for the bottom and or back. They’re separate elements

Yup, most likely the heating element on top of the seat foam for the seat bottom. There is a write up somewhere here about it, I’ve done it 2X already.

get the price down for sure, unless theyre absolutely mint then you can swap right in. I lucked out on a used set for $300, but I really only needed the cushions and covers.

Okay I got them both for $400. Way easier than swapping out my busted covers and cushions.
now these also have cooling. Any idea how I can get cooling to work on my 2011? I have heating but the cooling button is blank.
There’s a few threads on here but no definite answer.
