    Default Need help tracking down a suitable part: Vehicle captain's chair with integrated seat

    Before I get a sarcastic toss to google' search engine, yes I have googled it. Yes I have been the Calgary's pick n pull lots.

    I am looking for stand alone captain's chairs that have the integrated seat belt in the chair. Actually, 4 of them, for custom fixtures.

    The only one I know of is from a 2008-2010 Chrysler Town and Country minivan. Dealerships want $4000/seat!

    Anyone have any ideas where I could find something like this? I am also trying those custom wheelchair van businesses to see if they have some kicking around.

    Did you try junkyards or car-part.com? Maybe someone parting out a minivan Kijiji?

    I would consider seats from a convertible as well - for eg. Seabring.

    edit - no arm rests ... but could be added

    edit - what about these? Maybe available from an RV dealer in Canada?

    I know 2nd and 3rd gen Sienna has it, but only the passenger side seat.

    Also look for those old Dodge/Chevy camper vans conversions.
    You have a couple of photos that are great... you must be very good at photoshop!

    Not a captains chair but the 1999-2006 Silverado/Sierra/Suburban/Tahoe/Yukon had bucket seats with the seatbelts integrated into the seat and some of them had armrests as well:

    I know some of the older F150's had captain seats with integrated seat belts as well.

    Yup I remember my dad's truck had them. I think extended cab trucks might have them (unless they awkwardly dropped from the roof instead)

    I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure the OP is looking for the original style captains chairs, ones that swivel around on a pivot (just like his photo). Not just a bucket seat renamed for marketing.

    On topic: Did you look at RV seats? http://www.kijiji.ca/v-trailer-parts...ationFlag=true

    Off topic but does anyone else find it stupid that the element has these in the doors so you have to take the seatbelt off before letting anyone out of the back? Is this standard design?

    Doesnt have to swivel, they are being mounted on a wood base. I need the seat belt and the UAS latch points for infant car seats.
