Too Much $ For Explorer Seats ?

I found some explorer seats in excellent condition. They are full power, tan leather, tracks included. The question is: Is $350 total with shipping too much?
I will probably end up buying these. I would have them shipped because I would spend the same money in gas to pick them up.

Thanks,

Jason

#1 problem.....thats $350 shipped. Try your damndest to find a local set. Some can be had for $100 a set. Some for $200. But...it it matches your interior and got the green, and don't mind the possible risk during shipment...by all means go for it. I think it's too high.

I got my buckets(cloth 03Fx4level 2 buckets, manual w/ lumbar) for $75 for the pair. The center console was $20. So i'm into a bucket conversion w/ console for under $100.

I have been having the hardest time finding tan leather seats in good condition. My standard for good may be a little high but, every set I have looked at that were said to be in good condition were trashed in my opinion. I can't decide if I should get these or not. Every set that have found were in the price range of $300 to $1000 for a pair in eccellent condition. I just don't know.

car-part.com

How about searching car-part.com and after filling in the search, you can click on the distance filter at the top right and get the set that is closest to you and maybe a lower cost??

if you do get them. if i was you, id just go pick em up. that way you can really look them over and see if they are good enough for you. if you get them shipped then you are stuck with them. plus if you go meet him you might even be able to get them a bit cheaper.
