Can I further lower the drivers seat in an ES 300?

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 7:36 pm

I have a ’93 ES 300 which I like except for one thing: I am 6’2" tall
and even with the driver’s seat in its lowest position, my head rubs
the ceiling. Rather than get a different car, what are my options to
lower the driver’s seat so that it is more comfortable for me? Can the
stock seat be lowered further? Can a lower aftermarket seat be
installed? Who makes them? I already drive with the sunshade open all
the time, which helps, but is not sufficient.

Thanks for the help.

  1. Hi Bob,

    Got the same problem – ’92 ES300.  I’m 6′ even so I can’t imagine how
    you’re standing it.  I’ve been in some newer ES300s and they have clearly
    increased the headroom.  Not sure which model year they got bigger but I’m
    suspecting our only option is to move up a few years.
