    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    Digging it into this more, i have discovered that you can make the seating config change through ForScan to prevent the seatbelt warning from going off. (At least for '20-24) It's in the IPC. It's a drop down menu built into ForScan already so no need to look up lines of code. In the IPC...

    You cant delete the bluecruise, it comes standard on the ST’s.

    Ordering Options

    ...can shed some light on. Because I want a specific configuration I'm going to have to order. I want the Rapid Red Metalic with a 2nd row bench seat (witht the Sun and Sound Package). Those two items seem rather straight forward. The other things I'm considering that I need help with is a roof...

    removing 2nd row seats

    That’s what I ended up doing for the middle bench. Hated routing the harness in/out so I ended up buying a new buckle ($35 or so) and digging a harness out of a junkyard vehicle one of these nights I’ll cut it all up to make a sort of jumper I can just plug into the middle seat plug when I...

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    Thanks but I'm not looking to swap. I actually like the ability to swap from the 6-seat layout to the 7 seat if needed. I prefer the bench, but my kids prefer the middle seat out.

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    EDIT: There's an easier way to do this with ForScan. See a few threads down Just to add more data. If you previously had a bench seat and swapped to captains chairs, i'm sure you've discovered the warning you now get on the dash for not having the middle seat installed. I imagine most...

    Captain chairs rattle

    My bench seat does it too. Pass side outer seat. I can make it rattle myself by giving the seat a good whack. Waiting for warmer weather to go through it and ID the cause and correct it with some padding.

    Yes, I’m not sure the middle seat is heated though.

    '26 ST New Guy

    @ManInTheBox : Welcome Aboard!! A couple comments: I do like your body color selection, it actually comes very close to being similar to the color of the wheels. If you do decide to go with the Borla system, I'd be interested in hearing about your observations (before and after). I'm still...

    '26 ST New Guy

    Congrats on the new ride! Unfortunately, the strut bar does nothing on these cars. For the exhaust, Thermal is the best option. Borla is overpriced and doesn’t replace the crappy flex pipes.

    2025 bench install

    Yea, the captains chairs are nice but the bench is just more useful in my opinion

    2025 bench install

    I sure would like to know why our 25's her in the states did not have the option for the 2nd row bench seat. In Canada they were an option on 25's. I hate the captains chairs on my 25' and wish I could have ordered it with the bench seat.

    WTB Bench Row

    I have a 25 ST, and I want to get a bench row installed. I want to maintain the heated seat ability but dont mind if the seats dont say ST.

    '26 ST New Guy

    ...I purchased my '26 ST late last month. I settled on this one because of 1: The color. The Carbonized Grey is sharp looking. 2: Second row bench seat. Wanted a functional adult sized 3rd seat in the second row since I won't regularly be utilizing the third row. 3: AWD. This thing feels...

    Might sign for new ST tomorrow, but hate the 2nd row captains chairs.

    I got this from Amazon, some extra storage if you need it and they sell some with built-in cup holders, it looks like it belongs and makes a pseudo bench seat bottom for the dogs. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DHHGHVKY

    25 ST Steering "sticky" on center & does not return to center on its own (bear-left only; bear-right is fine)

    ...when the steeringwheel was centered--was a jerkyness to lane changes.. I 'solved' it by buying a '22 model (principally for its 2nd-row bench seat), and that one's steering was free of this steering stickiness.. Subsequently I've had a '23 and now a new '25 ST, and neither of those has this...

    Well, I'm not NEW, but I'm back

    I did not like the '25ST a first, that one looks really nice, starting to think about trading my '23 in. I want a Bench seat (factory installed).

    2026 Order banks open!

    Definitely an odd way to package the bench seat and I do not understand why you need to order 4WD to get the bench seat. I ordered my 2026 Explorer ST with 2WD, but I wanted 2nd row captains seats, so it does not bother me. A similar gripe I have is why do I need to buy the sun and sound...

    2026 Order banks open!

    ...the configurator last week and changed the 2nd row seat, it said the bench required 4WD and the captain's required RWD. It would not let me select captain's chairs with 4WD (or bench with RWD). Must have been a glitch in the configurator they have since fixed. Still, why no bench seat for RWD?

    I would say it is the opposite of that. the AWD does not "need the bench seat", but if you want to add the bench seat to your order, then you also need to add AWD. In other words, when you add the bench seat to your order, the configurator also forces you add the AWD option. You can order a...
