Default Does a 2007 JKU have a split rear seat?

I'm looking at seat covers and found a great deal, but the listing says 2007 only. So I chatted with a person from extreme terrain and they said it was bc the rear seat was a solid seat like a TJ. Is this an accurate statement??? Unlike most listings when you see them listed as 07-16. Please help thx

I believe that the 4 doors are split rear seats. Good luck

They do have the split rear seat, but the release lever to fold them is differently placed.

ok so i see you have a 2007.....any chance you could attach a picture of the lever being different? or at least explain where your's is?? just wondering if that would mess up the seat covers......

my 08 is just a threaded pull tab in the seatback on each side, no handle on the side or on the top near the head rest, like some i have seen

thanks

You bet. Driver's side, I'm pulling it up as if preparing to lean seat forward ..

I don't think so, I think the 2 dr seat is shorter. You can buy an adapter kit to put the rear 2 dr seat in a 4 dr as a third seat, but don't think the other way round
