    Anyone tried this? I've been looking for some replacement seats and found some from a 2005. Anything major to stop me from putting these in a 2004?

    Subs because I love 2nd gen sport seats. I think someone on here has done it I know some people have put subbie seats in theirs with minimal fab work if any.

    I haven't found any 4runner seats I would want but these 2nd gen seats look great. I just don't have a 2nd gen to compare the seat size and rails to.

    Going to the junkyard after work to look at an 03 taco mabey pull off the old seat brackets as well as the center console if it has one and its the right color.
