    My driver side seat is a bit worn down. I can't find a roll of the stock upholstery that matches this one. I am looking to see if anyone knows of where I could get some or maybe has some on hand that would be willing to hook me up.

    Have you tried your Toyota dealer? The replacement cover might still be availible, but don't surprised if it's NLA

    I haven't tried the dealer but all my local upholstery shops can't seem to find any. I know it is no longer produced. I was trying to see if someone for some reason had a roll stashed in the garage somewhere that I could buy a yard from.

Replaced stock radio with a Pioneer AVH series head unit. Focal component system w/a 10" sub powered by 2 Alpine amps. Weathertech floor mats. Line-X'd the bed. SCS Ray 10’s, Installed an A.R.E.

    I can't see an upholstery shop having that hard of a time matching it?(I wouldn't know off hand because I've never dealt with an upholsterer.) I'm picking up a pair of Limited bucket seats but their pretty dirty (even after being professionally cleaned) I'm just going to have an upholstery shop do the best they can at matching the color. hope you find what your looking for.

    An upholstery shop will have something called a Detroit book. They can look up the code for the fabric. If they cannot get it, you can google the Detroit number.

    Be prepared to $PAY$.

    This is what my fabric looked like for my 1999 in the Detroit Book: Moonmist 110532. A google search found one fabric supplier that still had some for $55 a yard!!

    An upholstery shop will have some aftermarket materials that might look close, but it wont be exact. Toyota used complicated tweed fabric. Aftermarkets are generally going to be simple velour fabric.

    I am having my seats reupholstered this fall.
