Gen 3 seats in a Gen 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

kuveris · 02-28-2016, 08:51 PM

Hi all,

I'm finding my gen 2 seats are uncomfortable, too high and too much lumbar support.

Does anyone know if gen 3 seats fit my gen 2? Are they more comfortable? I'm from aus so no scions here.

I've read some threads saying they might fit.
The wrecker says once he pulls out the seats from the gen 3 I can't return them.

Thanks

I can't speak for the 3rd-GEN L/LE seats (haven't tried them), but the upgraded front seats in the SE are very comfortable.

Hi All,

This works, it doesn't line up 100%, but about 99%. You have to put all the bolts in loosely before tightening up, or the last bolt wont line up. This wasnt the case with my stock seats.

The only mod you have to do is remove one locator pin that not inline with the hole as shown in the pic, and either swap the plugs to the belt buckles, or just reuse the buckles from your old seats like i did.
