    Default Will an F3 Base or T Passenger seat fit an F3 Limited?

    Can you use the passenger seat from a F3-T or F3 on a F3 Limited??

    Seat mounting is all the same. That said, different models came with different "plush-ness" of seats. The F3 Limited (newer ones that come with the trunk) have a "thicker" passenger seat than earlier model F3s that didn't come with the trunk. If you put an older/thinner version on - you will see a gap where the seat meets the trunk. I don't know however, if the newer model F3s that are not limited still get the thin seat or the thicker plushier seat.

    So - short - yes - any F3 passenger seat will fit - but there is many different looks - so be aware.

    Thanks for the replay.
    My wife sat on a F3 Limited and hated the seat so would have to change it out and I have a second F3 seat.

    That's a good starting place. And the price is right. I spent $500+ to replace the OEM seat on my new F3L. I bought the Cannonball. Very nice compared to the OEM "mush" version.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    If you have a second - definitely worth trying to see if she likes it better before going a more expensive route. I've seen F3T's with the Top Case added - the gap is not bad - just noticeable. The F3L with Top Case standard closes the gap with the thicker seat.

    I changed my 2019 F3L passenger seat to the same passenger seat that was on my 2016 F3T, my wife did not like sitting high on the 19' as opposed to the 16'. Not to mention with the lower passenger seat my drivers backrest fits in the bracket much better and not stuffed in there.

    It IS a long shot; have you tried starting a Want to Buy Thread (WTB:) in the For Sale by Owner's section? You'll probably have a better chance that way; check out the '**** READ FIRST! - How to Use....' Sticky at the top of the 'For Sale by Owner' Index page (linked below too ) & then, following those directions, post away! Posting an Ad certainly can't hurt your chances of finding one, even if that too turns out to be a long shot for getting just the Passenger seat!?!
