Modern Leather in a 62 2 door!

After months of measuring every back seat in the junk yard to find a back seat that will just drop in, I finally found it!!! As of today I have full leather front and rear seats in my 62 2door!!!! I have pictures, just dont know how to load them!!!!

My next project is to find an electric window regulator that will fit in the front doors!!!!! To be continued!!!!!

Thae crazy thing is, the rear seats came out of a 1995 Chrysler New Yorker!!!! Also The Chrysler LHS will work too, but I liked the stiching and pattern on the New Yorker better!!!! Side to side it was a perfect fit, I had to modify the mounting points, but other than that its perfect!!!

Good info. So what colors do they come in, do the front seats match, and what kind of front seats?

Ive seen them only in black!!! The front seats are actually the same stitching and leather pattern from a 2001 Dodge Stratus. The New Yorker seats are a little bigger and bulkier, and I didnt think they would look right, the Stratus seat is smaller and looks right at home!!!! Now I gotta get ahold of some sheets of black leather and cover my door panels!!!

So has anyone swapped an electric window regulator in the doors?

Oh I like. You should have just emailed me the pictures so I didn't have to beat these guys to the salvage yard. My interior is black and you have me thinking now. Thanks.
Do you know what years are the same or similar? You already have me looking. Way to go.
