Just Purchased 97 ES300 Pics - Need Model year swap help please
Hi,
Looks like I will be hanging around this forum a bit. I just got a 97 ES300. Its got 121k and needs a few things. Drive's great. Can't beleive I bought a White car. Always buy Black. But if I had to, Lexus Pearl White is OK with me.
Interior is a little rough. The question I have is, will the 2001 seats fit in a 97 ? I saw some 2001 seats used, that also had side air bags. My 97 does not. Can you just install 2001 seats in a 97 and just not hook up what ever is the air bag connector ?

I dont know from experience but I would imagine they would bolt in just fine and yes simply just leave the air bag harness disconnected. If it were a 96 or older then I would be more hesitant, but any 97-01 should be interchangeable. The 00-01 Platinum and Coach Editions have some real nice soft leather if you can find a set of those :-)
