Recommended Seat covers 2023

Thanks everyone for your input!

 

Do these covers fit the seats well?Are they difficult to install?Look fairly good to me for the price!

 

My last word on Clazzio [today haha] if 1 piece gets worn out or damaged you can replace a seat bottom or back or headrest No need to buy complete set

 

They cover the headrest all the way down. Just don't look as snug and custom fit. Also I have an Access Cab so can't help with back seats. I would say try a pair and give some thought what you will buy when they wear out.

 

+1 on this, the seat bottoms will wear faster but you can buy/replace them individually

 

Clazzio

 

I bought the off-the-shelf clazzio PVCs. I think I paid 350 for the set. They are tough as hell, easy to clean, customer service has been great, and they dress up nicely.

Combine them with a heater kit and man I do appreciate them after striking camp on a rainy fall morning.

 

I had Wet Okole & when those wore out, Clazzio in my 2009 (not leather). The Wet Okole were easy to install because they stretch. The Clazzio was difficult for me with arthritis in my hands & being 71 yrs old at the time (a year ago). I'm looking at covers for my 2023 now. I went on Katzkin's website but they ask to many questions to just get a price. I will probably have to pay someone to install these this time. I do see that Wet Okole will install theirs free if you can make appointment, buy from them & can bring your truck in.

 

The local Toyota dealer offers Katzkins. They quoted us $1600 for a full set installed, which IMHO is pretty good. However that's when we were buying it so there may have been a discount. Probably check with your dealer or find a local Katzkin installer from their website and ask them for an all-in price. We have a couple of friends that had Katzkins installed on a couple of collector cars and they really look nice and are wearing great. Were I to do it again I'd go that route instead of the Clazzios just to save my hands and fingers the wear and tear. Still love the Clazzios though so I'm happy that I did it, once, anyway.

 

I used Wet Okole for years on several vehicles - they fit well and lasted for years. I went with Rough Country neoprene for my 2022 Taco and I am very pleased with them. Just as good as Wet Okole IMHO and about $100 cheaper. They fit really tight so can be hard to get on in places but once on look great.

 

Is that dog not hypoallergenic?

 

Yup!

 

+1 for the rc seats. Easy to clean, but i had to get used to the feel of them if that makes sense.

 

Curious what you mean by "feel" - I have always had neoprene seat covers (or leather on some vehicles) so I guess I don't notice that they have a particular feel. Maybe not as smooth as leather so you don't just slide into your seat. But, yeah I am a big fan of RC seat covers too - great substitute for Wet Okole which I also liked.

 

You hit it on the head, neoprene seats were just new to me. But great seats overall and they've held up well.

 

I’ve got these ones from Amazon. Full coverage and cost about $280. Definitely worth it!!

If I'm gonna spend in excess of $500 I would not expect to see the covers "wrinkle". I though Clazzio was "skin tight" or form fitting & stay in place. Or are my expectations incorrect? This is my first foray into seat covers, fyi. Thanks Hamp

 

Clazzio perforated leather. Installed late April 2024. Now that it's been a few weeks since install and they have settled, I need to go back in and tighten them down still.

 

Another vote for the RC neoprene covers. I had a few requirements and they fit them all: waterproof to handle the muck after wet, muddy river trips, dog-proof to handle my beast, inexpensive so I won't get too upset if they get ripped, and airbag compatible. Dog is my copilot, and she loves to getting muddy and dirty on our hikes and camping trips. She also sleeps in the back seat on a lot camping trips, so I didn't want to spend too much on covers that may get ripped up by her nails. I've had them on a year, no rips yet. Cheap enough and easy enough to install/uninstall so I don't worry about taking off and power washing when they get too muddy.

 

I went with the Cover Craft Precision Fit Carhartt and love them. Pricey, and a huge pain to install the rear (I just took the rear seats completely out to wrestle them on) but look great and have heald up pretty well after 3 years and 3 washes (even though you aren't supposed to wash the precision fit as it can deteriorate the foam backing).

(They fit much better than in their own photos)
