Question Add rear seats for 08 dak st

My 2008 dakota st has only two bucket seats in the front and nothing in the back by the access doors. I was wondering if anyone who had the same situation has added seats in the back or how much it would cost. I had trouble finding the actual seat and parts on the dodge website. any help would be appreciated.

Let me say I have a 06 ST w/ the seats, don't waste your time. I six year old couldn't make use of those seats even if you tried. they are as useless a Club cab I have ever seen.

I agree with molten. The only way to sit back there is sideways. Might as well throw a couple of pillows back there. Hey maybe they sell dodge pillows

i have one seat in and one out, for a person to sit on the seat is quite tight, but the side with out the seat looks a tad more roomier with a pillow as stated

I fit people back there ALL the time, Not roomy but Ive had 2 adults back there. The one the sat behind me was SOL I wasnt movin my seat haha. But sideways other then little kids is the only way.
I miss my 2k it atleast had a bench seat in the back, I might mod mine into a bench (with the center part smaller, not stickin out as far). If I dont build a console for between them.

I removed my rear seats because it's so tight back there.[05] I stored them and will put them back in if I sell the truck. It sure seems like the '99 excab had a little more room in that area!

The 05+ Actually has a bigger cab. I dont know where that extra room is, its not back there for sure as hell. My 2k seemed to have more room to, and it was also a Bench seat.
We had 6 people in my old 2k at one point, Since it said it seated 6 LOL

I actually removed my rear seats, I can't see how anyone older than 6 could possibly fit back there. Can't remember if I kept them or sold them, if I kept them they're probably on a shelf somewhere in my parents shop.
