Default Seat Swap in 2003 F150 XL

What other Ford models with bucket seats will fit a 2003 with a bench seat? I want to replace the bench in my truck.
Thanks

I put Expedition seats in my 99 that had bench seat . You just have to tap the inner mounting holes. If you get the bolts with the seats they are self taping just need an impact wrench to drive them in.

97 to 2004 heritage F150 bolt in.
97 to at least 2006 expedition. Maybe after 2006 but I don't know.
97 to 2006 Navigator.
Navigator consoles after 2002 will not interface with the dash
Expedition console up to 2006 do interface but some don't line up perfectly but do still fit and bolt in.

If you do not have power seats and get Navigator or most expedition seats that have power you will need to get power to them.
I switched to Expedition seats with console and all the bolts I had were tapped. I guess I got lucky.

If I said something incorrect somebody will correct me.

Problem is finding decent used seats. Vehicles in Junkyard are now 20 yrs old, most show it. Leather can always be recovered....at great expense.

I like my 2003 Lariat Screw. Front leather seats can be recovered for *only* $450 each.

60-40 seats use the same mounting holes as bucket so there tapped. bench seats only use the 4 outer holes.
