    Wait, from what I understand, you want to get an SLT level truck and swap the console for a seat?

    WHY?

    Is this only for the 1500's or the HD trucks as well?

    Gotcha, it's whatever you want. I'll let you in on a little secret, make sure you offer to sell the console to Justin after you take it out for $799 since he said he's only seeing them on eBay for $800

    It should fit fine, the SLT level interior on the 2500's is exactly the same as it is on the 1500's and I know that swap has been done a billion times.

    Here's a better picture of what I mean:

    Here's my truck, an 09' 1500 SLT



    And here's an 09' 2500 SLT



    Like I said, the swap from jumpseat to full console has been done a bunch of times, and it's a direct bolt in replacement, so it should be the same way to go from console to jumpseat.

    And finally, here is a how-to on GMFS on the swap, you're welcome
