Hey, oh Jesus i hope I don't butcher this post 😅, i know that swapping interior parts like consoles and seats and even some times all of it between different models and generations is fairly common, has anyone done a whole lot with 2014+? I love the interior options of the early 90s, and if anyone has searched for a set of red SS style bucket seats, you know that they're fairly sought after.

But right now I'm wanting to know if anyone has swapped the rear or front bench/ 40/60 seat from an extended or crew cab from an 88-98 into the back seat of a 2014-18, and if so, what would be required? I have extra red interior and while the look of these trucks is nice, I don't like the bland dark colors by them selves. Any help will be appreciated!!

I just love the Red of the classic trucks, I have debated on doing something like this on my 03 burb for a long time, the 2015 truck is fairly new to me.

 

I just want to do something to this interior with oem colors, and I have the Red bench seat out of my Cheyenne. I figured I'm trying to do a bucket seat swap in there and so I'd have an extra bench. Idk kinda spit balling ideas.

i like the idea of a 1960-80's front bench, aftermarket might have it in vinyl too...

Yeah I would love that, honestly even some bench seats out of any late 60s to even early 80s muscle or pony car too for the back seat, if I had mechanical front seats I would have already swapped them out 😂😂

    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
