Sorry but no poorman's racing seats.![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

supercoupe, I forgot to add the year of my friends' corolla that I was using as an example. 1992 Corolla. I am sure he doesn't have power seats. I also been in my friends 2002 or 2003 type s manual Corolla, her car doesn't have power seats...

Dear Calvin,
This is because your car sucks.

so if it has power seats, does it make it a Lexus? My dad's truck as power seats. heheh, not much poor mans racing seats but poor man's leather replacement! I have a BRIDE bucket I'm going to throw in but then the passenger side is still ripped. I'm gonna be rocking two tan Supra seats that are sooooooooooo new the color is noticably off. I'm trying to see if I can source some tan BRIDE fabric.....

Most parts for the seats can be bought piece meal. The seats I bought were missing the buttons so I bought some from Elmhurst Toyota. When I installed my seats, I lost the memory function and heated seat option.
A great deal can always be found on supraforums and often times in our classified section here on Clublexus. Just be patient a diamond in the rough will always appear.

The driver did need a little modding for the power features to work. The stock and supra harnesses are incompatible so I just pulled the two large (blue and white) power wires from the stock harness and plugged them into the supra harness. Works flawlessly.

Finnaly some headroom! The seats are very supportive and just wrap you in when sitting. Yes you lose some power options and the heaters but they give you more headroom and comfort and save around 70lbs. Leather matches perfect too.![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

So the truth? The truth is that I was tired of my ex-girlfriend's friend's asking to sit in the back. I was just tired of detailing and vacuuming the back. It's a pain in the *** to squeeze into that space with a vacuum and cleaning products. So there's the truth

By the way, with the seats gone, the empty space is enormous.

I took out my rear seatbelts for the exact same reason!!
although i do like your way much more, how did you do it? it looks flat there so you must have custom fabbed something besides the carpet.
