    Was in the market for a 3rd gen long bed sr5 (likely 2019) and was wondering what those who are too tall to fit in the previously non-motorized adjustable seats, have done? Aftermarket seats, salvage yards for Lexus seats? I would prefer to get a 2019 (even a 2018) due to price, rather than a brand new 2020, just for the drivers seat adjustment. Are they selling OEM 2020 seats that can be retrofitted into previous years? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    There is a handle under the seat you can pull and slide the seat back.

    I don’t think the motorized ones offer any additional movement, it’s just powered.
     
    Volksparts, Shellshock and whatstcp like this.

    Actually the motorized ones offer quite a bit more adjustment, most importantly they allow the seat to be moved down 1/2'', which makes me fit perfectly, whereas in the previous models, the second I hit a bump off road, i smack the top of my head on the ceiling. I'm 6'6'' for reference.
