Looking at seats... - Page 4 - Toyota Yaris Forums

These two torx screws hold the right rear sensor to the rail, but that silver arm is in the way. Also, the other 3 torx screws are covered by the body of seat, so I can't see a way to take them out.

My bad. How's this?

If I end up picking up the wrecked eBay Yaris, I'll have a set of seats to mess with the sensors. They appear to be resistive load cells.

Is there enough space under the new seat for the Occupant Classification ECU?

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 04:42 PM

Is that this guy?

CTScott · 08-07-2009, 04:44 PM

Yes. He'll need to still be connected.

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 04:45 PM

Not really any room under the seat or on the brackets:

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 04:46 PM

Is it safe to just lay it on the floor under the seat?

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 04:53 PM

Scratch that... I can attach it to the front of the bracket

CTScott · 08-07-2009, 04:59 PM

How about the seat belts - Are you going to use the exiting or replace them with harnesses?

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 05:01 PM

Booya!

I'm using the existing belts. I already removed the seat belts from the old seats and bolted them to the new ones.

Apparently the driver's side seat belt is not the same as the passenger's side. Driver's side is plugged into this:

No idea what this is, but it's magnetic... stuck to the rail when I removed the torx screw holding it in.

MGargano · 08-07-2009, 05:35 PM

I attached it to the driver's side bracket. Seat belts officially swapped!
