Celica Seats in my tC - Installed! Pics and write up : Page #5
I found like 7-8 topics about this. Nobody had a straight answer how they fit.
I heard that they sits lower. Well, in the tC seats the roof is 1 inch away from my head. I don't mind sitting a little bit lower as long as it wont feel awkward.
My mom has a Celica, and I love the seats. I would choose them over the eBay seats.
I got big butt too, so i cant really get a racing seat, because the side of my thigh would start to hurt after 1 hour of driving. Celica seats are just fine.
So anyone actually did this? i really need some fast answers. I want to do this by the 1st week of March.
Pls don't tell me to use the search button, there isn't any answer in any topic. I know that I might have to do some custom brackets. But I want to to talk somebody who actually did this.
What about the brackets and how low it sits? Of course i will post up lots of pics about this.
I already PMed Andrew... who has Celica seats.

they look nice!!! one important question.. because they sit lower.. is there any space below them? so ppl can put they feet there if the sit behind me?
pls pm me how much paid for it..
btw i want to get the fabric one not leather... does anyone have any idea how to look for them online? i tired genuine celica seats but all i found is crappy aftermarket universal seat cover.
btw even if i buy those celica seats.. i need to change that cover on them.. i dont know how to look for those either. if i look for celica seat cover -again.. all i find is crappy universal seat covers.. not the original toyota one with the zippers
