    Got used a set of "TACOMA" front seat covers for my 2006 4door Tacoma. Driver side fit perfectly, has a pvc that fits between seet back and bottom. All one piece, no problems. The passenger side doesn't seem to fit at all, at least not to my liking. The cover's seat back and bottom are separate (unlike the drivers side) and has a plastic piece with snaps at both ends that apparently attach the two, but I can't get them to conform well to the passenger seat. And there are gaps on the side and at the bottom of the seat back.

    Do you think this is how it's supposed to fit?

    Is this supposed to fit the passenger seat of an Access Cab instead of double cab? You can see in the pic theres a child seat drawing on this side, which makes me think this is the case. Toyota says the seats aren't different though, but who knows.....

    Thanks fellas.

    My guess is that's a cover made for an Access Cab seat that folds flat.

    I have that same exact seat cover on my 08 Access Cab. the velcro part sticks to the back bottom of the passenger sit. the top part need to stretch out so you lock it in place with that plastic piece on the bottom of the back rest. lmk if you want a pic of mines

    I think its cause you got SR5 seat covers on a TRD model seat, I had those exact covers and they were for SR5, the seats that fold flat in my 05

    here's how it's installed. like Gincoma said, it's prolly specific to only that type of seat.
