Expedition Warriors,
need a 9 seat Expedition Max. Ford doesn't sell one.
Will the middle seat from a front bench in an F150 fit in an Expedition?
Larger question, are the seats from F150 interchangeable / compatible with Expedition seats? Is this safe, legal? Any idea how changing seats impacts warranty, liability in the event of a collision?
Desired end state is an Expedition Max with 9 seats WITH a shoulder belt on front-middle seat. Would need to buy an Expedition Max and remove center console; then replace with center seat with an F150 bench seat.
Been to a Ford dealer, part shop, and called into big Ford, but no definitive answers.
GM sells front-center seat in Yukon / Suburban, but it only has a lap belt.
Looking for some help!
Thanks!

Ford called back today with message from brand manager saying to check with Ford Parts to see if seats were compatible. No other word. Haven't connected with Ford Parts yet.
Called another dealer who provides and maintains many MD police departments' Ford Special Service Vehicles. Said that modification would need to be approved by Dept of Transportation.
It's an answer, but not definitive enough yet for me.
Still need to know if F150 seats fit in an Expedition.
