I think I found a good price on a set of Sport seat But they are located in St. Paul, MN.. The best deal on shipping is greyhound. Does anyone have a better suggestion? I gotta sell the wife on the seat and how great a deal they are but shipping is poking holes in my great deal...

Also is retro fitting LCI to my Pre-Lci a PITA?

Update: the seller and his uncle are going to drive the seats down to STL from St Paul for $200 which about $25 more than freight shipping and fees..

U-Haul Grand Wardrobe is a good alternative.

Shipnerd, U-ship. Those shipping services are often actually fairly priced

Should be plug and play assuming both vehicles have the same options. LCI headrests have airbags which your pre-lci doesn't have, so just leave that connector unplugged.

Shipnerd just hunts for best deal. I tried shipnerd for a rear folding seats setup. My box was right at 100 lb. UPS and FedEx only ship up to 100 lb and they wanted $270 from Houston to Memphis.

Greyhound shipped it for $94 and took about 3 days even though the quote said 5 days transit. Greyhound also had a 100 lb limit. The guy at Houston terminal worked with me (wink wink).

The seats were found in a junk yard and I didn’t need them but knew someone would. Buyer and seller were both happy.
