Blazer body style was made up to 05, so anything from 98 to 05 will bolt right in.

I put front seats from a 2dr in my 4dr, so don't let that stop you (putting 2dr seats in it will gain you the function of the full forward lean).

I'm fixing to put power leather seats from an 00 Bravada into my 04 Blazer this week


You can make ANYTHING fit with some modifying, but don't expect anything to be a direct bolt in other than seats from a Blazer, Jimmy, or Bravada

Does full foward tilt mean the seat back will lay flat like rear seat?

no no sorry, I wish...

what I meant was how far they lean forward, since in a 2dr that's the only way to access the rear seats

Default here's my problem...

Took the front seats out of a Bravada, think it's a '97. They are nice, heated power black/charcoal leather.
Went to put them in my '98 Blazer LS, and the rear inner bolt doesn't quite match up with either seat.
Do I need to fabricate something, or am I just better finding seats that will bolt in?

Just put them in as best you can. Then make a cardboard template of that tab that would make it fit. Weld a copy of the cardboard and post pictures of what you did.

Was just out in my city's U Pull It, found 2001 Envoy with nice two-toned gray and black leather. I made sure they were a match. Ha
I will look into welding a piece on, as well. I got a buddy who does that for a living.
Either way, score!
