2015 Toyota Highlander Driver Seat Controls Repair

The panel blew out. Apparently it happens to others. After studying and buying parts, the DIY repair was surprisingly fast. Worked well.

Glad I found your video as I discovered today this exact damage to our 2016 Highlander this morning so I may do this myself! Very good detailed video!

[@DrBDIY]

Glad it helped.

[@markmargevicius5717]

my 2015 just did the same - thanks for taking the time to video the repair.

[@DrBDIY]

You're welcome!

I've got the same problem. Glad I found this video

Cool beans. Patience. Inspect for any other broken parts too.

Great job 👍.
I have to do mine, thanks for the video.

Any time!

I have the same issue on our 2019. Thinking of just putting a screw through the side piece at the fastener and call it good.

[@DrBDIY]

Inspect carefully to make sure you see all of the broken areas.

[@kenschmidt6522]

@@DrBDIY yes, already have. The only breaks are at the two mounting points, left front part of the seat. The two pieces are still fastened securely together. A screw through the center of the clips should do. If it fails, I will order parts.
