OE Seat Brackets

Rockrz · February 13, 2022

Do you guys think it's possible to remove the OE bucket seats from their OE bracket... and then bolt on aftermarket seats?

Mine is an '09 Colorado with OE power / heated bucket seats (not too comfortable), so I'm considering the Corbeau Sport Seat found at https://corbeau.com/sport-seat or the Corbeau Baja XRS at https://corbeau.com/baja-xrs (these should be closer to feeling like the OE seats that were in the 2011 Chevy Silverado that I used to have)

I was looking up under my OE seats and there appear to be 4 points where the seat is attached to the OE bracket (it's a solid fastener that would need to be drilled out).

I found a video at where the guy is reviewing the Corbeau Baja XRS

At 0:45 in the video, he's saying this seat has standard 4 bolt mounting points that would fit most seat frames manufactured in the paste 50 years. If true, then the 4 points where my OE seat is attached to me OE frame.... should match.

By retaining my OE bracket, I'd be at about the same seat height as the after market bracket appears to be considerably lower and would not have up and down adjustment like I have with my OE bracket.

Just curious if anybody has done this with OE Chevrolet seat brackets before and if so did these 4 points align all it would bolt right up?

I don't just have to have the Corbeau seat. I'm open to any good quality aftermarket bucket seat that would bolt on to my OE frame if it's comparable to the Silverado seat as that seat was a lot more comfortable to me than the OE Colorado seat which feels more like a 70s bench seat (flat and soft, not supportive for thigh and ikidney mid section)
