Default Anyone know if ES300 seats will fit SC?...

Local guy is selling his set of '98 power front seats in great shape...The one's in my SC400 are getting to be junk *****....They have a slightly different texture and shape; power controls are in a differnt spot too. Didn't know if the electronics/rails lined up underneath or not?

i can help you with the electronics, and the rails will take some grunt work i can promise you..

i spent 2.5 days grafting my IS350 seats into my SC400, and they came out BEAUTIFUL.

i say go for it, but prepare for some hard work. you have to drill out the rivets, swap brackets, weld a little, drill summore, then do the wiring. one of them carbite or whatever drill bits specifically drill steel/metal is absolutely crucial

Sweet, nice job! The perf'd seats are definitely the way to go...can't stand the constant back sweat in the AZ heat from the stock seats...

It would be hard to fabricate, but if you're buying them anyway, there are a lot of better alternatives for the money. I had a 97 ES300 with the same seats, and they just wouldn't look right in an SC300, plus they don't really hold you in place or feel that comfortable unless you're a bigger guy. I found myself always like sliding off of the seat, or "sittin sideways" lol.

I got lucky, my friend is giving me a set of 94 Supra seats for my SC.
