Need a mount without storage? If your truck has factory equipment under the seat, like an amp or DVD player, we can build a no-storage pan instead. Same price and seat height as the standard mount, built to order in 3 to 4 weeks. Contact us before ordering.

This driver-side seat mounting system allows you to upgrade your Toyota Tacoma with scheel-mann Vario F or F XXL seats, heated or KLIMA (heated and cooled), in 2nd and 3rd generation Tacomas. The design includes an integrated storage box and dual 22.2 mm Toyota-style cube-switch locations for accessory controls.

Safety Systems & Airbag Integration

This system is designed to retain all factory Toyota safety systems when installed per the provided instructions.

• Factory seat-belt mounting location is fully retained.

• All original SRS airbag functions remain operational.

• The in-seat airbag removed during any aftermarket seat installation is correctly compensated using a custom, vehicle-specific airbag proxy included with the kit.

• No airbag warning lights when installed properly.

Seat Heating & Wiring Integration

scheel-mann seats include heating, and KLIMA seats add cooling, each with their own switches.

• If your Tacoma did not come with factory seat heaters, a heater extension harness is included for use with the scheel-mann wiring.

• If your 3rd Gen Tacoma did come with factory seat heaters, an OEM-retention heater harness and mounting bracket are available to retain your factory heater switches.

Important: If your 3rd Gen Tacoma originally had factory seat heaters, your scheel-mann seat must be equipped with the Tolerance Stack thermistor. The stock thermistor supplied with the seat will not function correctly with the Toyota system.
