10-12 RX350 Seats In A RX450H?
Does anyone know if the front seats from a 2010-2012 RX350 fit the RX450H?
I picked up an 11 450H that needs some work. The drivers seat is trashed and I'd like to buy a replacement. The fitment calculators say it doesn't fit but it seems like it would.
Can anyone confirm for me?
Thank you in advance.

I would think they are all the same seats. They are the same car except for the addition of the hybrid mechanicals and battery.
Search or call http://www.rancholexusrecycling.com/ as they have the Hollander database which is the definitive cross reference guide for what car parts fit what other cars and may also have the seats. You can also search eBay for a replacement seat leather cover which you will probably find is a lot cheaper than buying an entire seat. I have seen many for sale, both lower cushions and upper section cushions. Usually it is the lower part that is the worst. Also a local car upholstery shop can probably refinish them for less than buying an entire used seat. Most of the used ones will not look much better than your seats.
If your leather is not torn, but merely has cracks filled with years of dirt that make it look terrible, then they can be refinished which I have done to my RX. Others here have also done it and we all posted photos. Get the perfectly matching leather paint and additional materials from https://www.leatherrenew.com/
