Price from the only custom place near me [ 3hours one way ] was about 3K...Now I have
a chance to get 2 F250 seats for less then $200. Can it be done and what hardware do I
need? Thanks.

If you have a machine shop near buy have them build you brackets for the chairs to a flat floor (guessing the vans flat floors) then just drill your own holes. It cant be that hard a 3k job to install chairs they should have the courtesy to lube you up first. Id be insulted if they estimated me at 3k

TY, Also just wondering if seats from F250 could be mounted onto E350 bench seat floor bracket hardware. Really trying to have headreast/neck support for 3rd row passengers. Any thoughts?

The real problem is to mount seat belts correctly- you could just fake it, but I wouldn't want to be the one riding in home-mounted seats with jury- rigged seat belts- maybe this is why they wanted the 3 grand- a professional shop can not cut corners on safety issues- it makes them liable-
