A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Scion tC, 2011 to 2016. Part number SB156.
The second generation tC. Scion was Toyota’s North American youth badge, so a UK car means an import and the parts supply reflects that. The 2005 to 2010 car takes SB084 and the two do not interchange.
Why a bolt in bracket earns its keep here
Because almost nothing else for this car is easy to find in this country. A bracket that picks up the factory mounting points needs no measuring, no fabrication and no specialist, which on an import with a thin parts supply is worth more than the part itself costs.
What the car actually is
A front wheel drive coupe on Toyota’s mainstream underpinnings, with the 2AR four cylinder. Not fast, and that is rather the point: they are cheap, they are reliable, and they are a sensible first car to build for track days where cost per lap matters more than lap time. The standard seat is the first thing that stops being adequate.
Before anything comes out
Side airbags and occupancy sensing are fitted. Tell us the specification and we will talk through what needs doing.
Handed, so order twice for a pair.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026, and Customer Car: Subaru Impreza With Corbeau RRS Seats and Planted Technology Brackets. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Scion TC (2011-2016). Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
