    Can someone please show me some comfortable seats some that are much more comfortable than the standard pip or the regular 3rd gen. The seats of the prius are absolutely horrible, especial getting out of one of my lexus which really annoys me I have been in the 3rd gen for almost 200,000 miles and I just can't grow on the.
    So please share. I'm not expecting anything close to the Es or Rx but something softer than rock ;).

    Lexus CT200h seats have been fitted into the 3rd Gen Prius.

    The problem I see with that is I don't currently have power seats so how would I position the seats or de they just need 12v power

    I have to agree with the OP. I went from a RX to a PiP and the seats suck. I was going to get leather installed, but installing CT200h seats might be an option depending on the price. If you find out more info, post it up. I'm going to keep track of this thread.

    :)I haven't checked out the PIP base seats, but I'm completely happy with the power drivers seat in the Advance. I like the SofTex covering, the power adjustments and the lumbar support. My previous daily driver was a 2011 Lexus IS. One of many pluses for the premium paid for the Advance model. I have experience with another car, one with and one without power adjustments. Money well spent.

    Clazzio leather seat cover made the seats much softer, although I have not taken any long trips yet so the cloth seats didn't really bother me.
