I've read both ways, hoping someone who's actually done this can answer.

I've read that explorer seats bolt directly into the extended cab rangers (mine is a 96) without having to do any rail swapping etc...nobody really answers which ones?

is it the seats from the 2-door 95-01 explorers or the 4-door 95-01 explorers? I've looked online and the 2-door explorers have a different front floor pan setup than the 4-door ones. I cant really tell from looking at floor pan pics which ones are the ones like the extended cab rangers...

for the power seats, how do you guys hook power to them? do you go straight to battery? I've read you need to use a 25amp fuse but there's not a whole of of existing circuits that are 25amp already and I dont want to exceed that either.

the a/c is 30amp but I can imagine running the a/c and then adjusting the power seat will likely pull more than 30amp and pop the fuse...

It wasn't the case for my extended cab truck, but it's a '90. I'm pretty sure that the 1st gen Exploders and '93+ Rangers bolt the same way to the floorpan. If you buy some seats, make sure the rails aren't welded so you can swap rails if you absolutely have to. It's not a difficult task. If you get power seats, well, you can't just swap rails as far as I know.

Always protect your electronics with fuses. Don't share fuses with other circuits, just find a vacant place in a fuse box and wire it in, or get a fuse socket that goes in-line with a wire. They're like $3 I think.
