GX460 Donor for Upgrades

[Maingear]

Hey guys, I've been a lurker for years - this forum rocks!

I'm looking for switches, front seats, and a few other parts out of a GX460 to upgrade my 2013 SR5.

Online searches show seats are going for $600 to $800 each. Hits have been very limited and nowhere near the Memphis.

Is there a website I have missed or do I need to call local salvage yards every week until one shows up?

Thanks,

Justin

first, i think this is in the wrong area.

second, there is a place in CA (tlsautorecylcing.com) that has some part cars (GX 460 & 470) in the yard. They warranty the parts for a year but the price tag reflects it. Also a coworker has bought things off here for his wifes RX 330 and has said they were great to work with. YMMV.

third, what is wrong with your switches, seats, etc.? or are you just feeling the mod bug bite?

Yes, that's the one I've been using.


The memory seat buttons and courtesy lights would fit from the door panels. Factory switches for upgrades would be nice, personal preference.

Back seats look like a good match too if someone wanted a bolt on solution for leather. GX460 second row has heated seats on some models.

The Limited front seats are pretty darn comfortable as well. Nice heating and cooling features, not sure they would be any easier or less expensive to acquire though.

Good feedback! Could be the same parts?

Sales figures on the last chart of each link..
GX460: Lexus GX Sales Figures - GOOD CAR BAD CAR

T4R: Toyota 4Runner Sales Figures - GOOD CAR BAD CAR

Random guess is 1 out of 5 4Runners were limited? 20% It may be easier to find a limited.
