Question Driver Seat too soft

Are the “F”series seats similar to Recaro seats? I need to replace my drivers seat as it is not supportive enough.

Which Recaros are you attempting to compare them to? I'd have to say no right off the bat though.

I am considering a Recaro Othoped although I am first looking into a Lexus F series seat as I assume I would not need to purchase a special seat bracket as I would for a Recaro.

^^^^Since you didn't state the model of your car, I assume it's a 2nd gen ISX50.. Yes, ISF seats are plug and play in an ISX50.

Thanks Lou, that’s good to know. My real question is are the ISF seats similar to Recaro with firmness and support. The stock IS250, 2nd Gen car seats are very soft and without support; my lower back cannot take a 1/2 hour painful drive
