It's already a feature...
My cousin is the chief mechanic for Lexus headquarters. He said the memory seats are associated with the keys. When you enter the car with a particular key, the seats readjusts to the last setting the seat was in when that key was used.

F-Sport version don't even have the memory seats, so there is nothing to associate with the key to begin with. The OP wants to know if there is a way to retrofit factory or aftermarket memory seat option to an F-Sport model

As an example of how complicated this could become:
I learned on this forum that the lane change signals for the 3IS are actually controlled by the wiper ECU. A member pointed it out when discussing how to change the number of flashes for the lane change function and why that setting is not available in TechStream or the Carista App.

I don't think a field upgrade would be cost effective. Maybe next year Lexus will offer the F-Sport package on the IS with some of the luxury options such as are found in the RC.

It's nice of your cousin to "educate" us on that but can he enlighten us as to why this seemingly common option is available on much less expensive cars and not on an IS250/350 F-Sport that goes for around $44-50k.

Adding the switches would be required, but would there be ECU programming as well? Is there a separate module controlling the memory functions? That ECU would also control the position of the side mirrors (in normal and reverse mode) and the position of the steering column, which is also not included in the F-Sport.

So pissed still they dont have memory seats. Gonna haunt me forever.
Might be possible. Probably have to steal all the parts from another car. Im guessing harnesses, brain and new chair motor. At that point minus swap out the whole seat but wouldnt mtach

it is disappointing that it wasn't an option, but asking dude's cousin isn't going to get you the answers. we'd have to ask corporate. memory seats, memory telescoping stering wheels and adjusting side view mirrors would've been golden, but i guess that's why they made the GS huh?
