Bench possibility for a 1994 Toyota Pickup. HELP!!!

I have a 1994 Toyota Pickup, allow me to give you a quick history. I got it from my father, when he had it it had the stock bench seat. The truck is a manual transmissions so the bench had that little round cut-off in the middle in order to make accurate shifts. Before my father gave it to me, he took it off and installed buckets seats from an Acura. He sold the bench. I am currently living in San Diego, while leaving here by myself, I had no problem with the buckets until my sister and girlfriend followed me to SD. I installed a bench in case anything were to happen that required me to fit both my sister and girlfriend in my truck. The only problem is that the bench I installed is for an automatic transmissions Toy (meaning no round cut-off space). I found one online for 50$ but it's from a 2001 Toyota Tacoma. Is it possible to install a 2001 bench seat to my 1994 Toyota Pickup without any type of modifications (bolt in, etc...)? I appreciate any advice, anything is helpful.Thanks!

P.S. This is my first post ever, so I do apologize for the formality and delayed point of the whole forum, thanks again.

By online I'm going to guess you mean craigslist, cause shipping of ebay would be insane. It is a quick swap as I expect you already know. It'll probably fit without any modifications, or maybe by swapping out the mounts.

Only one way to find out if it'll work for you and thats to try. Make the deal depend on the fit and swap it in the sellers driveway or whatever.

wont directly bolt up. the floor bolt holes are in different spots. id take the seat you have now to an upholstery shop and see if they could do something with it to make the cutout for the stick.

Really? I had a feeling that might be the issue. Well i'll take what you suggested into consideration, hopefully it's not too expensive. I was planning to do it to the taco bench in case it did fit. I'm thinking of fixing up my toy (lowering, paint,interior, hid, Etc...) well, thanks very much to the both of you.

why not just do the modifications to fit the taco seat in there? seems easier and cheaper to do this by either drilling or making an adapter vs paying someone to modify the internal structure of the seat and the upholstery on it.
