    After looking at the Baja XRS and the RS again, the XRS has a bigger headrest than the RS. It doesn't seem like the RS headrest is very usable

    Just got to thinking, this morning while I was driving around doing errands in my truck. Wondering if a suspension seat will help cushion the ride while dailing driving. I was noticing how stiff the ride is just going down the street. Most of the days I am drivng from around 60 miles round trip to 100 miles round trip tomand from work, depending on where it's at. If so, then I'll go ahead and get the Baja XRS which seems to be the most popular for Tacoma owners from the search in Google images I've done.

    Ok, you convinced me... I'm ordering the Baja XRS, tonight.

    Do the seat belt connectors from tne 60/40 split bench bolt to the Corbeau seat brackets?

    I've ordered the Baja XRS. Just wondering if I can get a measurement between the two seats? I am trying to find a center console that will fit between the two.

    I appreciate it. I thought about trying to look for one out of another Tacoma, but don't want to deal with that right now. Seen some universal ones that could work if they are narrow enough.
    I am stoked. Wont be able to install them until next weekend, though.

    It's all good. I got them through a place called Blueline Expedition Outfitters. The owner hooked me up with 10% off and free shipping plus there wasn't anyn sales tax since he's out of state.

    Thanks for those pics. The narrowest universal ines I've seen are 9 - 9.5" wide, so it looks like it won't fit. I might need to look for a used OEM.

    I got my seats and one of my brackets, today. But, they sent me a single locking bracket instaed of a double. The other bracket is coming from Corbeau.
    They are working on getting the correct bracket to me.

    Got my seats installed this last weekend. But, I orderded the same exact seats as you, but I was sent the full vinyl seats, instead. I went ahead and installed them after having to deal with replacing the sliders and didn't want to wait to install the seats, because I didn't want to deal with trying to ship the seats back and wait any longer to nstall them. In a way, I kind of like the idea of the full vinyl because it will be more durable and easier to clean up. But, i did order the vinyl/cloth, because I don't like hot sticky seats. Just wondering if it will be worth making a stink about it and see if I can get the upholstery swapped out to what I originally ordered.

    I think Tuffy (there's also a Smittybuilt clone iirc) has an 8" Universal locking console that is meant for Jeeps but could be an option

    Still, too wide. Anything wider than 6" won't fit. Need to stick to an OEM one.

    Best decision I ever made was to remove my center console and start using my glovebox for wallet, sunglasses and such. Then you have plenty room for any seat! Try it and you'll see
