Seat risers

This mod might seem ridiculous to some but for my, (2 surgeries in 1-1/2 yrs. ) ailing lower lumbar I need the base to be more “laid back”. Maxed out the factory setting but still not enough. Amazon kit worked great. Huge difference in comfort.

Can you share a link? Did you install this yourself?

Here you go. Yes, installed myself in 5 minutes. You’ll Need to drill one hole in the riser block to accept the locator pin on the underside of the Lexus rail. These are made of Delrin so it’s like drilling a stick of butter. Very easy. I can check on the drill bit size I used and mark the location for you but it’s fairly obvious once you pull the factory bolts which are torx btw.

This is great, thanks for posting. I don’t think there is enough tilt in the seats either.

To be clear are you only putting the two up front for more lean/front lift or all four for actual height? I like the idea of the front two.

Exactly! Just loosen the rear torx to allow front end lift. Ideally you would have a full length "wedge" shape that tapers front to back which would offer full length support of the rail. I didn't reef on the torque value much past 15 ft lbs especially on the front. The new bolts have as much or maybe even a few more threads engaged so not worried about holding strength in the event of an accident.
