Since a lot of my mechanical/bodywork is done (see other thread), I want to do a new interior.


Has anyone ever swapped in seats from a newer Lexus? I like the idea of variable heating/full electrics/etc etc, like the LS460/LS600. Any advice? What seats out there are best?


Thanks!

Bump! I thought this would be more popular!

I know nothing about swaping but a lil word from experience i just put some sparcos in all you need to make sure is right is all the mounting bolts line up i had all but one because it was a supra rail now im having trouble with it wobbling but other then that there is a clip under the seat you remove for moving the seat and heating it make sure that the other lexus seat is compatible or you are capable of wiring accordingly

Syed Shah

Thanks - that is certainly important from safety POV!

I am capable of doing the wiring myself. I guess I will need to get the brackets custom made (no biggie).

Any opinions on what seats you guys would go for? (From a luxury perspective, no fixed-back buckets :-) )
