Can you adjust the passenger seat?

I've looked and looked and cannot find any passenger seat adjuster other than one to move it forwards and backwards.

 

Even with the seat right back I find that I have to lean forwards to see around passengers. I've never known a car where you can't change the angle of the seat-back.

 

Or am I missing something?

You use the same lever that you use to tilt it forwards to allow access to the back, unfortunately Toyota cut corners a little with the passenger seat and it doesn't have 'memory' - as a result it always goes back to being fairly upright once tilted.

I tried that and thought that couldn't be it. How rubbish. How much did they charge for Supras initially? 40,00+ I'd have been straight back to get some proper seats put in for that money.

 

I'll have to get the missus to lay in the back then!

My seat also just locks far back, took off the covers at the adjusting lever and found that the gears that hold the seat at the right position are worn so they slip, anyone had the same problem and found some way to fix it?

Don't forget these cars were designed 20+ years ago.
