I find that I have more room behind the seats, and its also easier to reach behind the passenger bucket than the former split bench.

I think they were out of a 1990 but I did see two types of lumbar SR5 seats with minor differences in the way the thigh support upholstery was finished. If you look at rdlsz24's picture of his seats you'll see that his thigh supports differ slightly from mine.

Wow, I never knew they had two door handles on the passenger side of the 2 door models...
I do have one question for you:
How the hell did you find a driver's seat with NO TEARS, OR HOLES in it?????
You are so lucky... I bet your truck doesn't even make that special "Yota" squeek when you turn the wheels all the way when turning.......

I gave up on greasing the steering stops when I hit 100,000kms.

Looks great. I used that same center console (The Clutter Catcher) from Wal-Mart when I swapped in my bucket seats last month. I love it...it holds tons of crap (sometimes that's good, sometimes it's bad 
).
Your interior is damn clean! Great job.

o and i also installed power windows and power locks. i put the switches in the 3 knock outs in front of the little change slot. the skeaker surround and pocket is made out of MDF (medium density fiber board) and covered with a texture spray and a matching paint to the bluish grey vinyl i used on the door. i will put up better pics as soon as i get my truck back.
that darth vader thing is awesome by the way!

It's that little squeeky-grindy noise you get from the steering stops when you turn the wheel to full lock. If you look at the lower a-arm you'll see a little "horn shaped" bit there and another on the back of the front wheel assembly. They are to prevent the wheel from turning too far and rubbing the body/frame. They are ususally covered with a piece of plastic when new but it wears through in no time at all. You can almost illiminate the squeek with the application of a dab of chassis grease on each horn (4 per side) at each oil change.
