Default 2000 Dakota Club Seat Swap, Need Advice!

Im a new Dakota Owner, came onto Mopar after riding a Jeep YJ for a while.

Bought a 2000, Dakota 4.7L Club 4X4. I love the truck, and have already repainted the paint peel, and am looking to enjoy it for years to come.

I really want to swap the old cloth seats with some Leather ones. My question is, what models can I source seats from. Anybody know if I can drop Leather seats from other year dakota's, RAM's, Jeep Cherokees, Other manufacturers...

Any insight would help. I currently have power seats so would preffer to keep that option going.

Default Durango seats same year

Durango seats same year is what I have seen others say will work with some small mods.

Best is to take it to a auto upholstery shop and have it done or look at some seat covers some look great but not cheap $150 to $200.

Lightbulb depending on what is bad

Depending on what is bad think on this I purchased my Dakota new in 98 it was a base truck I got it because it was a repo truck and I got a fantastic deal BUT it was a base truck with vinyl bench seats I wanted cloth so I took it to a shop and said put some cloth inserts in would you they did and it looks like the seats were made that way from the factory you don’t need to replace everything on the seats you can do just the inserts or were you sit.
