driver side seat plastic cover broken

The plastic cover on the outboard side of my drivers seat has cracked in multiple different places. I am sure it is from getting in and out of my truck. I have called toyota and was told just the piece was $110.00. Does anyone else have this problem. There should atleast be a TSB or recall to where it would be a one for one swap if yours is cracked.

 

its been a long known problem, no TSB (that Ive heard of).
Just have to be careful getting in/out and not "slide" out of the seat.

Look for OEM parts online, I found a replacement for @ $50 (iirc).
Cant remember the site I used.

Toyotapartsales.com is where I got all my replacement stuff. Great prices too..

 

Same here. It's a design flaw. When you get in, the seat compresses, and puts weight on the plastic piece. Mine looks horrible. Every truck I looked at before I bought mine had it. I can't believe they want $110 for that shittin piece of plastic. That is sad.

 

Ya mines does it to lol its just kind of hangs there now haha

 

They probably didn't want that kinda coin until everyone started needing one.
