I thought I would share with other 3rd Gen 4Runner owners my solution to the lack of headrest storage in the earlier models when the seats are laid down.

I was tired of dealing with the lack of storage for the headrests in the early 3rd gens when I put my seats down. The headrests were always in the way among all of my other gear while camping so I CNC machined out of high-density polyethylene a bracket to hold the headrests up behind the front seat headrests. This keeps the headrests up away from shifting cargo that could cause damage to the headrests and even allows for easier access to the cargo area compared to the 99+ “bottom of seat” storage location. The 99+ storage location doesn’t allow for easy access to the cargo area as the headrests fill in the opening between the driver and passenger seats. Another cool thing about these brackets is they can double as a light duty handle for smaller kids that have trouble getting into a 4Runner or an improved storage location for the lucky people that own a 99-02 4Runner. I say improved because the higher placement allows for more elbow room and easier access to the cargo area while seated in the front seat.

I am selling them for $27/set shipped and unpainted (very light grey). If you are interested in a set send me a PM with your mailing address and email address that is associated with your PayPal account or I can share my email address with you, whatever you prefer.

Thanks for looking!
