My ex wants to buy a 2015 Jeep Patriot Sport. However, she is short and sits too low in the drivers seat. Since the seat does not adjust up or down and she does not want to pay the few thousand dollars extra just to get a model with a seat that adjusts up or down, my thought was to buy the Sport and then later buy a manual six-way drivers seat to replace the one in the sport that she is looking at.

I know it's not the cheapest option but my question is: Is this even feasible? I am assuming that the rails that the seat attaches to are exactly the same in all Patriot models for a manual seat and that swapping seats should be no problem. Am I correct?

Thank you for any consideration.
 
This is for your ex? :confused: Unless you're trying to rekindle the fire, this is a task for someone else -- her brother, father, son or new SO. Sorry, I don't mean to butt into your personal life.

If you still feel obligated, try a junkyard. Maybe they've got a new wreck with the seats you're looking for. In the meantime, get her a pillow to sit on!

Hahahaha...I'll second that!

I am not trying to rekindle the fire, lol, just trying to be a decent person.

The question still remains, but now she is looking at a used 2014 Jeep Patriot Sport, 2WD.

Will a new or used manual 6-way adjustable drivers seat fit, without adjustments, where the manual 4-way drivers seat currently sits?

She may buy this afternoon.
 
You must be running for sainthood! :notworthy: I pray God loved one of my ex's, and I hope the years have been kind to the rest, but I'm not doing any special favors.

As for your original question, I don't know if a different seat would fit, but I'll bet it would just because I doubt they'd run a separate configuration for such a minor change.
