Hey guys, I've spent the last hour combing through posts about seat swaps, but have been unable to find the exact answer to my question. My wife and I have a two year old and are expecting twins in a month. We are eyeing Traverse LT leather models and would prefer an 8 passenger configuration, but finding an 8 passenger/bench seat model is proving very difficult.
In light of that, what we are thinking of doing is buying a 7 seat model with captain's chairs. I would like to purchase and install a middle bench seat from a salvage yard, as it will seat a toddler seat and two infant car seats for at least the next two years. When my two year old is a little older, I would like to reinstall the captain's chairs in a couple of years or so.
Has anyone done a captain-to-bench swap in a 2018-2020 Traverse and are there any issues besides the carpet that have come up (air bag sensors, bolt locations, etc.) I've noticed many posts regarding first gen Traverse swaps, but not many with regard to second gen swaps.
Thanks in advance!
