there is a local gentleman that is selling a decet set of mid ninties ls400 seats.

i need to know if they will fit into my 96 es300.


the "feet" are in the same position and look similarly spaced, and the plugs apear similar.

i cant imagine toyota completely redisigning a power seat from model to model so lets get the scoop!!!

i need to know asap!!

lexus states that the seat track on a 96 es300 is the same partnumber as a 95 ls400....

so crawlerdan did the LS400 seats fit and have you any pictures of the mod? I am envisaging something similar for my car.

crawlerdan

they where just different enough to not make it worth while

Pity, as I really want to get electric seats in my ES300. And they are not easy to find in Australia, as not a lot of them are wrecked. i thought about SC seats and also the earlier ES300 seats (but believe these aren't as comfy as the 97 seats).

I have done a bit more research (and quite frankly still have more to go) but the SC seats supposedly line up with the bolts on the ES, width wise and rail wise. I believe the seats are wider than the ES, but from the measurements that have been taken, this is only by a cm. The height is also slightly taller than the ES, but again negligible difference.

I guess the only way to really test this is probably to get a spare Soarer seat, and see if it would fit in the car without issue. May take me a while to get there yet, but I am sure I will soon. Will keep you and everyone else updated.
