A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Lexus LS 430, 2000 to 2003. Part number SB249.
The quietest production car anyone had built
Which is genuinely the point of an LS 430 and it should shape what you put on this bracket. Toyota spent an extraordinary amount making it silent and smooth, and a hard fixed racing shell would undo the entire character of the car.
Most people fitting seats to one are building a VIP style car or a show car rather than anything for a circuit. If that is you, ask us about reclining seats and retro or leather trimmed options, which sit far better in an LS 430 interior than a black carbon bucket.
The electronics are the most substantial in this range
Powered adjustment in many planes, memory, heating, ventilation, and on some cars massage. There is a great deal of wiring and mechanism under an LS 430 seat and removing one is a proper job.
Tell us the specification before you order anything and we will work through what needs dealing with.
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 Lexus LS 430 (2000-2003). 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.
