Yes ladies and Gentlemen I discovered THIS in a Pick a Part Yard!
A PRISTINE SC seat!
Yes, I'm very aware that all seats found in Pick a Part yards normally look like they have been mauled by rabid wolverines!
Not this one though! Clearly divine work went into this! There is no other explanation for finding a PERFECT seat in a yard! No tears, no rips no wear!
I know! You're feeling light headed and confused! I nearly fainted.
I'll let anyone drive to my location to touch it! This seat may cure diseases just being in it's presences.
Definitely a nice seat nonetheless, I'm new here so I wouldn't know the difference....
I would agree with other's comments on seeing SCs trashed in the junkyard, recently been going through 2 salvage yards and they're all trashed out from dash to seats, and no ECUs......

That’s been my luck until recently. A mint condition SC with a black interior popped up and was stripped down before I could get to it.
Most of the SC’s I see are so nasty inside that nobody touches the interior.

Agreed there... Most are tan interior in this area, I'm seeking a spare ECU to attempt the capacitor replacement myself.... worst case I'll send mine off, but have a spare to play with but haven't had any luck as well There is a semi clean and complete car here, but has doors locked, hood and truck closed, with chrome wheels still on, kind of a rare sight, may go back for the chrome wheels, with my keys and hoping my wheel lock will work, lol........
It does appear in the photo that the driver seat is not the same color as the passenger seat in the back ground.
In any case, the seat shown is in good shape and it all comes down to what you paid for it versus acquiring seat covers or (in my case) expensive leather replacement/restoration.
Good find if the price was reasonable and the seat cleans up.

That’s something I’ve never been able to get. Every SC here is an SC400 so I can’t use them. I’d love to get an extra ECU.
It’s a shame that the clean SC was locked up. I’ve had that problem on a few clean cars I came across. You might get lucky with your wheel lock working. My sister’s IS350’s wheel lock worked on an 06 LS430’s wheel lock.
We used to have a vendor here that sold high quality seat covers. Maybe still here, idk. That looks a lot like the one they sell.
Probably not a vendor but Katzkin / Leatherseats.com or Katzkin leather through any good upholstery shop can still be ordered for 92-00 SC's. VERY pricey but all 100% leather is. The quality can't be beat.
OP, that seat is undoubtedly recovered given the age of the car but it does look to be in very good condition! Nice find!
Alright, I didn't notice the two different colors but but still a little divine help was involved, the seat was positioned perfectly when it was hit(thus the reason it was there) so I was able to get to all the bolts without the usual major pain of trying to power the seats on a car that has been ripped apart in the yard!
