Default Seat swaps?

I have a 4 door 1998 blazer ls. has anyone ever swapped the seats over from a 98-01 bravado because the bravado comes with leather seats and mine has cloth. i’d imagine you can because they’re the same platform? thanks in advance

I had some in my 2004 Blazer for a while, direct fit. Passenger side was power so I had to fish the wires out from under the carpet. They were there, taped up under the back seat floor area. Pulled them through, plugged them in, and all worked great.

Would it still work with the ls because my passenger seat isn’t powered. it has the handle you pull up and move the seat forward

My originals were all manual accept for power forward and back movement on the driver's.

The Bravada seats I installed were power everything on both seats, including memory functions with the driver's seat.

Everything (including the memory controls and operation) functioned as it should after installation.

Like I mentioned, when I pulled my passenger seat out that had no power functions, there was no plug underneath it. I reached my hand through the hole in the carpet under the seat that the rear floor defrost vent pokes through, had to reach back almost to my elbow into the hole. But under the carpet in the back seat area, towards the center, I found the passenger seat harness taped up to the rest of the body harness. Already had power going to it, all I had to do was plug the Bravada seat into it and it worked.

But, this is in my 2004, so I'm not going to say for sure that your 98 is prewired for it. But all you have to do to find out for sure is pull you passenger seat out and take a look!
