Quick seat question. Limited vs Sport

[jgue467]

If i were to try to replace my seats, I'd shoot for a camry 02-07 XLE. They have front and reat up/down, lumbar and the usual fwd/back and are far more comfortable than t4r seats. :cowboy:

Perhaps I should find and test drive a sport model to be sure it is the seat I need for my runner. The only other question I have is would Toyota be the only place to get this seat aftermarket or maybe a vehicle graveyard? I saw nothing on ebay. Perhaps someone here knows of a good source..

Thanks

I actually would be surprised if you could find the seats through Toyota. I would think a part out would be your best bet.

If you're ever in the Seattle area, you're welcome to take mine for a spin.

Newbie as of a few days ago...

Looking to make a T4R purchase, and I'm leaning toward a '98. I saw one tonight, a limited, with the factory rear locker. Minus rust on the backside of the chrome bumpers, rust-free. A CA vehicle, so no surprise I suppose...

Leather seats though. I have never been a fan, and these don't look all that nice, on an otherwise pretty darn nice vehicle.

I'm aware of search, and I'm using such, but is there a good thread or two on seat options, popular swaps, or even seat covers, ones that fit well? I did find a discussion on Wet Okoles... Something to cover the leather, which while an eyesore, seem to be fine support or integrity-wise...

I'll keep searching, but I hope you don't my a kind direction. Thanks much.

Easy solution!!!
My 96 Limited had hard leather seats. Went to local PYP, found cloth seats in good condition. Stripped the cloth portion from the foam (can be done, KEEP THE METAL RODS) and washed in cold water. Dried with 2 fabric softener sheets (perm press). Put metal rods back in, then installed them sightly damp as seat covers over the leather, using zip ties. Have the lumbar support of leather, and softness of cloth
