    I've searched for three days now trying to find a pic of wet okele seat covers in a Tacoma with the blue interior, but have turned up nothing. Anybody have seat covers in their Tacoma with the blue interior? Can't decide what color to go with. Solid black seems like it'd be out of place.

    I have blue interior and I think there are enough black accents on the dash that black seat covers would look ok. I also have black husky floor liners though. I'm thinking of just having the seats re-upholstered, if the price is close. That way I could order extra fabric for the door panels also and pick a fabric that would match the existing interior. If the price isn't close I'll just go with black wet okole and possibly new black carpet.

    I ended up snagging some all black covers and couldn't be happier. They really go well with the interior. Pics show more of a contrast then you actually notice. Actually goes well with the black interior trim.

    Have received compliments from everyone that has rode in my truck since I bought them. Literally every single person.

    Here's the link to the thread where I put up pics. I have since added the top part of the back seat.

    Nice! Those are the first pics I've seen of the kind I want in my color interior. Do you by chance have a picture of your seat covers and the dash/front of the cab? It's hard to tell with the interior color since you have black mats so there isn't a lot of OEM fabric in the pics.... but they do look good I gotta say :drool:

    Also, do you have any problems with lint, or other stuff showing up on that dark black color???

    I don't have black mats, but need to get some. They'd def look nice in there. Only problem is I heard the weather techs for our model doesn't fit right up by the clutch, so I held off until I found some others.

    No, they really don't show much dirt or lint. Maybe if you had a dog the hair would accumulate, but other then that I don't see what would show up on these.

    Only complaint on these is how the cover doesn't sit right in the void left by the arm rest on the 60/40 front. When you pull it down, the fabric won't stick in there, so it just kind of hangs funny. Could possibly pin it in place, but I haven't messed with it.

    Oh my mistake, it looks like black carpet in the back. Regardless they look great and you sealed up my decision on the black Wet Okoles!!
