    got a vert, dont like seats becuz when you drive a lot, you get out feeling stiff plus they only recline so far, think there is some kind of stopper in them becuz of hitting the buckets that the top goes into

    what other options for seats do i have or could i take seats from a 5th gen and convert or something
    need some advice

    yea mine the headrest is separate, does anyone got seats they dont want, even if it is just one for the driver? do these recline all the way? I would get them if i could but i was to all the yards in like the last month and only found 1 86 celica st that was destroyed

    those are comfy indeed, but 7th gen seats are even better :) Needs some work but looks asskicking in a vert imo :)

    get the gt-s sets, but you gotta mod them to fit the vert and work too due to the seat belt holder on the seat.

    no i just picked them up, still gotta put in, the ones he gave me are for a alltrac i think cuz i gotta change the one mounting point on each seat with the ends from my seats so they bolt up at all 4 corners

    put them in but took a while to figure out, had to swap the deep bracket from the orig pass seat to the new driver seat and vise versa, or else they wouldnt line up, plus the inner front one on both is a inch off so i was able to get the bolt in wit a huge washer to bolt down on top of it from the side, (the orig seats have a wider track by 1 inch) 3 out of 4 mounting holes perfect is pretty good i guess , sucked to do but is worth it now that they are in alot comfyer too
    (by the way for anybody who needs this info i went from gt vert seats to alltrac)
    as for the seat belts, i can just unbolt the clips from the center by the console

    yea, thought i did a whole write up on how to swap out brackets on the st/gt chassis to make the gt-s seats work.....hmm....
    but fun wasnt it?! worth the time

    would you know how to get the inner front on both seats to line up, i got all other 3 perfectly lined up, when you go to bolt it down it is a inch too short in toward middle of seat from the mounting location ( do u kno what write up it is)

    Swap the cushions into your frames, quick & easy

    I tried them and the ST182, ST205 seats. Ended up fitting the ST182
    seats as they
    were the most comfortable but had to customize the brackets.
