Default Bench to Bucket Seat Conversion

Never mind guys i figured it out. I had to take the pretensioner off the old seat and plug it in on the new seat, so it’s all cleared but thanks for the help!

The Air Bag codes have to be cleared, BTW. They can remain in the system until cleared.

Your pre-tensioner on the new seat is bad then. Can it be swapped over from the old seat?

there was no pretensioner on the new seat, but yes i did swap it over and mounted it to the new seat with a small 3/8 x 2 bolt and lock washers and a nut.
