| If the 62 seat mounts the same you have an easy solution. I have no idea if it does though...

| It does. I replaced my seat back with one from an FJ62. I used the front headrests from an FJ60 and it all worked perfectly.

| Hey Turtle, do you just take the headrests out to get the seats all of the way down? Pretty cool.

Pretty cool. | Yes. works perfectly. all you need to do is install the 62 rear part of the seat, and change the side-locking mechanism to the one of the 60. it botls up perfectly. to fold down, take the headrests out, done.

| Great! I'll start searching for a gray 62 rear seat back in the southeast. I'd still be curious to know if my existing seatback could be modified to have headrests...
Thanks for the input.

| While you are at it you should just replace the seat bottom with one from a 62. 62 seat bottoms have holes for the headrests to go into when the seat is folded flat.
