Ive read somewhere people use old celica seats.

I put '93 bucket seats in my '87 4runner... the only trick was pulling the outer bracket so that the holes line up.. and I had to drill new holes for the passenger side, because it bolts in farther back in the second gen 4runners.

Anyone else have some more asnwers for this? I am alst interested in changing some seats... I am 6'3", with the seat all the way back, my knees are steering wheel high!

I have a 86-89 celica and the seat tracks and mounts are different. Might have to be older then them.


BSchorr, As for having the seat all the way back. You gotta modify your brackets. Or if you find aftermarket seat they usually come with tracks but no mounts. Take the mounts off your old seats and weld them to the new tracks.
