I got everything done installed except the backrest on the driver side. There is a plastic "change catcher" underneath and behind the seat that is attached with elastic on the bottom and sewn on the top. It prevents me from pulling the seat cover in to velcro the front and back together. Did I miss something?

 

sounds like your talking about the large plastic flap on the back side at the bottom. the best thing to do is to remove the front seats so you can manipulate it. you dont have to disconnect the electrical wires or pull the seat out of the truck.
anyway, the elastic on the bottom has clamps at the end that attach to the wire frame of seat. they easily unhook. this flap will be tucked up under the cover along the backside where map pockets are. the covers have a flap to take its place. once you remove the seat it will be easily figured out. hope this helps

 

Done with the switch install, just have to wire it up tomorrow...

 

x2....Installed mine today too and unbolted the seats so I could get underneath them. I don't see how anyone could install these covers without doing that and not go nuts.

Nice, looks stock! Did you also paint your console?

 

Nah, I did that the other day. It didn't turn out as good as I liked. I also painted the dash kit and around the vents in the center. That turned out pretty good IMO. I can always purchase a new center console if after sanding it doesn't look any better...

 

The seat covers only come with cigarette lighter plug ins? Why did you have to buy new switches?

 

Cut the elastic and fold the plastic up.....that's all....

 

Does anybody know where i can buy the TRD logo to iron on the rear seat covers just like the TRD iron-on that comes on the front covers?. Does WO sell them? I appreciate any suggestions or recomendations..Thanks a lot....

 

Or disconnect the little ring it's attached to instead of cutting it so you can return to stock if needed later.

 

you dont have to cut the elastic. they're hooked to the bottom of the seat, all you have to do is unhook

ya WO sells it and stitches it on as an option. no iron-on

 

Uh, they are ironed on, not stitched... ...

 

Some of us are wiring them in. Some who are doing that want different switches.

 

I didn't have to, I wanted to, in order to make it look factory....

 

Correct, I have the TRD logo on the front seat covers but WO does not do logos on the rear covers and I wonder is they sell them by itself....

 

I was just wondering what the factory switches look like, IE. Should I be ordering switches so I have them when the covers come?

 

Here are some pics os my seat covers (all black) and the arm rest mod....


Still looking for the TRD logo to iron-on the rear covers...

 

Got my covers about a week ago and just got around to installing them this Saturday. Here are a few pictures. I love the color - charcoal - nice match to the interior gray. I'm not really impressed with the front backs, looks like the piping going up the sides could have better followed the seam where the side panels meets the seat front, instead they wrap around the side more than I like. One more thing, the back seat backs are more difficult to operate now that the covers are on. I hope this eases with time. Over all I'm really impressed with the quality of the covers.

I have a question about the rear center seat belt, do I unbolt the bottom and pass it through the slot in the bottom of the back panel?

For those who are wondering about what to do about the factory coin catchers on the front seat backs, unhook the two catches from the underside of each seat bottom, turn the plastic panel up so that it lays flat under the back of the seat cover, leave the elastic and catches in place in case you ever want to return to stock.

 

those look sharp!

 

Yea I noticed this yesterday too...just gotta put more force into folding the back seats now.

And as far as the rear center belt is concerned, it looks like you already got it installed the way it should be done. That's why they included that velcro split down the middle of the rear bench. Or am I missing something?

 

Ya there is a slot at the bottom of the back panel where it meets the bottom cushion right where the belt passes through the gap.
