I picked up some SR5 bucket seats and swapped them into my truck from a 92 SR5 Toyota pickup for $100 CDN funds each earlier this year. They were in really good shape and after a steam clean and some shampoo they are good as new. Just gotta keep an eye out at the local wreckers.

It's definitely best t take a trip to the junk yard to get new seats. Not only can you probably find stock yota seats in good condition, you might find a pair out of a completely different make and model that you like better.
Just look for something that sits about the same height off the floor as what you have. It's not hard to fab brackets to make them work.

x3 for the pnp. I found some nice 4Runner seats which they quoted me like $100 for the pair. But, I am poor and my bench seat has served me well so far...
Your not joking. I've heard of AFMs from the dealer going for around 1k. I'd bet a set of seats would cost a few thousand as well.

well for a 2nd gen rear head rest, not the one that clicks and tilts forward, was 200. for one, in cloth! so based on that, 500 for each headrest, 2.5 grand per seat, 7k sounds about right...
at the stealership anyway...

leather racing seats are stupid, not enough grip. I like the factory buckets (atleast i think thats what ive got). They're quite buckety, and keep you in place quite well.

I called the dealer for new door panels, and they wanted 400 bux for the stock sr5 door panels. i about shat myself found a yota only junker and became this guys friend, he took the door panel outta his son's project truck for 40 bux for me! lol This is after i tell him about the ones on ebay going for 209 plus shipping. I would find some outta a junked car or go get them reupholstered for cheap.
