If I recall correctly from my childhood, we solved the seatbelt problem for the middle passenger back in 1965

1970 Chevy wagon…we bounced around in the back two seats like pinballs (and no AC!)

Here is a new combination seatbelt, shoulder harness, and head restraint system that I am thinking of implementing for the front passenger:

You've got a terminal condition and won't last long, I fear?

Someone with more knowledge feel free to correct me, but I think bench seats went away due to safety regulations. So unlikely there would ever be an official part.
Hello,
My 2010 GMC Canyon same.as a Colorado has a split bench seat with a fold up arm rest center council in it. That would be a nice option.

I just did a quick search, and bench seats in trucks in specific models.
I’m torn on the bench seats, I love the retro vibe, but I also want the console for storage.

i do keep a gun in a console safe, but otherwise a console just collects clutter. I 100% want the bench seat. I have two kids and wouldnt be able to use the blank slate to pick them up from school. Since I rarely have to do it it isnt that big of a deal, but it would be nice.
