Tolerance Stack Forum

We have been getting a lot of customers looking at our airbag proxies specifically in order to solve airbag light/function issues when changing out their stock seat to almost any other seat. On Toyotas these are the two MOST common. Yes there are others but most will be either the type 1 or type 2 versions. When ordering please make sure you confirm which one you will need. They all do the same thing but its just the business end of the connector that matters on your vehicle. Airbag proxy differences for most Toyota SRS equipped vehicles For those unaware, when you remove an OEM seat that contains an airbag, that yellow connector informs the SRS computer that the airbag is active. In Toyota vehicles there is a secondary component of measuring the weight of the occupant. When you remove the airbag equipped OEM seat you are giving the SRS computer an error code. This would have very negative consequences for how the SRS system handles this error. By plugging on a correct ohm rated resister you are telling the SRS system to function as normal. Dash warning light turns off. Now the SRS system functions normally in an accident and you just have one less airbag to go off because you changed the seat, but at least now the system functions as designed. Tolerance STACK airbag proxy ready to install For our proxy design we simply reverse engineered the connector and pin terminal mount and 3D printed a bed. This bed is now ready for the OEM Japan supplied terminals that match the Toyota terminals and add a resister in between the two terminals. This is then permanently bedded and protected inside the finished piece. We only use yellow so that any technician would understand that its a parts of the SRS system. 3D printed airbag proxy engineering using OEM Japan supplied pin terminals and 2.2ohm resisters

This was many months ago but wanted to share some 5Th Gen 4Runner progress. After 3D scanning the floor pan, seat bottom and mounting rails, the next order of business is to convert those all into a file we can work with in CAD and from there do a preliminary mounting platform to make sure we took care that all measurements were accurate. Best way to very and test is to do a 3D print of the rail mounting and see where we are off. Once all the measurements are verified its time to consider all the seating options and accessories to make sure we don't miss anything.

Yes this is the same text from our recent social media posts but wanted to start somewhere. Hello everyone. Now that the holidays are over and we have started a New Year, we can finally focus more on the new products we will be introducing coming up shortly. One of those products is the seat mounting for the 5th Gen 4Runner, and the best part is it works for scheel-mann's Vario line of heated seats but also their Vario KLIMA line of heated AND cooled seats. We have been testing with several 5th Gens from different years, with and without factory heat, and with and without powered seats. The idea is to check all the boxes. If you have been craving a scheel-mann seat into your 4Runner and never thought it would be possible AND keep your dash lights off after the seat upgrade, know we have you covered. Exact timing is to be determined but we are working feverishly to get them ready. Right now we are just hoping to gather feedback about what folks are looking for along with suggestions, worries, concerns...basically don't make us weep in the corner huddled into the fetal position but we are looking for feedback.
