Anyone know?

Check Ron Ayers for part diagrams. I don't think they're easily interchangeable without modification though.

I use a vaquero seat on my voyager, no modification. The voyager seat will require adding the rear bracket to the vaquero fender.

How about the posts to position the back of the front seat Garry? Do you know whether the Vaq has those in place already?

I swapped a Mustang seat on my Voyager to a guy on a Vaquero. The Vaquero bracket is different despite checking part numbers previously. It will not work with the vaquero bracket unless you "modify" it by flattening it out a bit with a large hammer OR get a Voyager bracket. Don't put the seat on or you might not get it off with the stock bracket.

Hey gv550. Noticed your post on a vaquero seat fitting the voyageur. You have indicated that the voyageur seat will require adding the rear fender bracket to the vacquer fender. Since the Nomad/Voyageur seats are basically the same would that be the only mod required. Just purchased a 2015 Vaquero and in the midst of selling my 2013 Nomad and I miss the Nomad seat already. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I've never tried to put a nomad seat on a vaquero, but for sure you will need the rear fender bracket. Peg also asked if the vaquero comes with the two posts to anchor the front seat so check that too. If your nomad is still around you should be able to try all this.

I was at my dealer the other day and they took a Vaquero seat off and it DOES have the posts that would secure a Voyager front seat. It did not have the rear fender bracket - although the fender did have the holes to add one.

I'm gonna guess those that "Just used a Voyager seat on a Vaquero" just used the rear pillion (Front latch) to hold down the pillion and let the back end "Float".

I did learn one thing though - it looked like they added Helmet Hooks under the seat on the Vaquero - That is a difference from the Voyager.

To gv550 and mike07nad thanks for the replies. I will take my Vaquero seat off and check for the 2 posts and also check for the holes already in the fender. I would check my Nomad but it just sold at the dealership on consignment yesterday.
