    I've seen it done in two trucks I think. One was Radiant Red and he swapped in FJ seats. The other I think swapped in TRD seats. If I can find either of them I'll post the links here.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    What, you don't like sitting on a hard flat surface with ZERO support while driving a vehicle that rides like a dump truck?

    I'd like to sue them to pay my Chiropractic bills.

    I put an OBUS FORME back support on the seat and it's made a big difference, not great but better.

    2011 has side airbag embedded in the seats. If you switch to an older bucket seat so the airbag doesn't hook up, you'll probably have the CEL and Airbag lights permanently lit.

    Well if that's the problem maybe you can hack saw the seat in half and have a split bench seat.
