    Got my daughter a 2018 TRD Sport. She is kinda short and struggles to see over the hood scoop very well. Does anyone make a solution to raise the seat about an inch?

    Note that you can raise either the front or the back or both. Front can only be raised 1.25 or so I think. Whereas you can use a combination of spacers in the back. I’ve raised my drivers see 1.25 in front and .75 in the back and think it’s just right. Raising only the front was too much of an angle though I like the height. Bad news is that my wife now finds herself uncomfortably close to the steering wheel since she has to move the seat forward more now. Your daughter may experience similar. Good luck!

    Look in the jungle for reasonably price ones. $150 is WAY too much for what you get.
