Quick Facts

Passenger side • Toyota 4Runner 4th Gen (2003–2009) • Compatible with scheel-mann Vario F and Vario F XXL (NON-KLIMA) • Two seat-height positions • OEM pressure pad reuse required

This passenger-side seat mounting system allows you to upgrade your Toyota 4th Generation 4Runner with scheel-mann Vario F or Vario F XXL seats. The system provides two seat-height options and maintains the vehicle’s SRS safety logic when installed according to the instructions.

This is a vehicle-specific, custom-fit bracket system engineered specifically for the 2003–2009 4Runner platform. It is not a universal mount.

Important Notes

Not KLIMA compatible
This mounting system supports scheel-mann Vario F and Vario F XXL seats only (heated versions without cooling).

OEM Pressure Pad Reuse Required
This upgrade requires reusing your factory passenger-side foam-mounted pressure pad (occupant classification sensor).

You must remove the pressure pad from your OEM passenger seat
Send it to Tolerance Stack for installation into your scheel-mann seat before shipment
This ensures proper OCS function and prevents SRS errors

This requirement is specific to the 4th Gen 4Runner passenger seat.
