Looking to replace front captain seats

2014 Jayco Precept-looking to replace front seats and would really like others comments on there replacement seats and of course price and difficulty changing them out. Lumbar/heated/6 way power/foot rest my thought is replace it once.

I had mine changed at Bradd and Hall, in Elkhart, Indiana. They had a great selection available, was able to set in them and make a comparison. They are not cheap.

I found no difficulty changing the drivers seat in a MH purchased a long time ago with a power seat, went very smooth. One tip is that you should put the mounting bolts in and tighten them BEFORE leaving the dealership and returning to the campground.

The reason I know this should be obvious

I replaced my seats a couple years ago. I did it myself. I enjoyed the project and the seats are very comfortable and look good. I bought mine from shop4seats as mentioned above. Great people to work with. I had to buy different pedestals for height. I can give you more info if you decide to go with these folks. My drivers seat was already a 6 way but the passenger was not. I will attach a pic of my seats. I think they look Great.

Larry, those seats look like they can keep you centered in the seat. My seats are like huge cushions bottom and back. I rock back and forts between the arm rests so I stuff small pillows beside me but that is a poor solution.

I'm not looking for sport car seats but sure would like something to keep me centered better.

They are nice seats Myron. My honey even says she does not get sore and hurting like the old original ones. And yes, they keep you centered. The massage feature is Fantastic. The only thing we did not get was heat. Didn't feel we need heat in AZ. Now to get down there, lol.
Don't the seats look great though?? When I saw that color scheme, I said that's the one. Total cost for both was about $3000. I did the labor. Pretty easy really.


It's too bad you are all the way in Florida. I'd let you sit in them to try out.

Thanks Larry, didn't do enough research to know they had the massage feature.

I know I can search the web site but is that all leather?

Thanks again.

Umm, Yes. I believe they called it Ultra Leather or something like that. It feels real good though to the touch. I don't know if you see much REAL leather these days. There probably is some somewhere. That would probably double the cost. Time will tell how good it holds up. If you want to talk to me about these seats and what all I did to install them, just PM me and we can get phone numbers. I'd be more than happy to share.
Anyone, who wants to talk about these seats, same goes, just PM me.
I think I will go out and sit in the seats and rub the leather, lol.
Take care.


EDIT: Link to the seat I have.

Another link on leather etc. Good info I think

Just a quick question on this. I have 6-way seats now and if I buy these new ones are the electronic connections the same plug in? Thanks

Hi. I don't really remember, lol. It's been awhile now. But, I did NOT have any problem connecting wires and I just tagged off the driver's side wiring for the passenger side. I ran a wire under the carpet in that area.
I will gladly explain what I did by phone or whatever if you like. PM me if you'd like to talk.
Take care.
