    I own a '21 Taco with an electronic driver's seat. Anyone installed seat jackers on these adjustable seats? Noticable difference? Worth it?

    Oh look, another mod....
    I have the leather/electric seats on my Tacoma. After I installed the seat jackers, I instantly noticed the difference. I'm very tall (6' 2" - without shoes on). Installing the seat jackers gave me a lot more thigh/hip support, but didn't raise the seat up. My headroom clearance is the same, but now when I drive long distances (or at all), my legs don't hurt.

    They are pricey, but worth it for the comfort that I get out of them.

    I assume you were unable to achieve the same ride/seat comfort levels electronically without the jackers?

    I have a 2021 with electric seats, the Seat Jackers made a huge plus in comfort for me. Much more support for thighs something I couldn't get even my maxing out the electric seats.

    Same here, 6-3 and 21 OR.

    Seat Jackers gave the power seat the bit it was missing. Went ahead and got the MMP at the same time. Good customer service from DDI as well.

    People will go ape shit on you for mentioning that...(that's where I got mine and I'm happy saving money)...and yet when they chase knockoff pro grills, lights, skid plates, chinese rims,etc...no complaints about that...yet Amazon sells chinese knockoffs more than anyone else...

    Run whatever makes you happy I say but the real Seat Jackers are 2nd to none in quality and the MMP panel is pretty awesome as well.

    Absolutely worth it IMHO, added some much needed lean to the drivers seat. Much more comfortable.

    The Desert Does It seat jackers are over the top quality, really nicely made and finished. I don't mind paying for quality products.

    i just wish DDI would offer a choice in heights specifically a 7/8. With the electric seat you just don’t need a giant 1-1/4 lift,

    Received the knockoff DDI seat jackets early. 15 days. The quality doesn’t compare to DDI tbh but it is a pretty good replica. The threads were kinda crappy and not as smooth as DDI but they got the job done. Also the coating was scratched and not as smooth as DDI. Just installed and feels a little taller than DDI but still comfy.
