Default 2nd gen seat interchange

Good day,
New to this forum. I have an 02 base, reg cab with 5sp and a torn up bench seat. A local yard claimed interchangeable seats and sold me a bucket set up. The bolt pattern for the front bolts matched but the rear bolt pattern is much wider on the bucket. I cannot find any cross-reference charts on line. any and all help is appreciated. Looking to either replace the bench or put a bucket in if it bolts up. Thanks!

Seems to me you've got extended, quadcab or Durango seats, it ain't easy on these Dakota's to find other seats.

Best thing you could do is to return the seats, and find original Dakota Regular Cab Seats, or fabricate you're own brackets.

I picked up a pair of leather seats from a 2003 Durango qhen my local u pull it had a buy one get one sale on seats. I just unbolted the rails from original cloth buckets and put them on to the durango seats.. worked like a charm with no issues.
