2014 Wet Okole GB - ended

So for the guys with heated seat did you buy factory switches for a canadian tacoma of fab something up by the cup holders?

 

I went with aftermarket seat heaters and did this

 

I received mine yesterday and finished installing the passenger seat this morning after spending about 15 minutes with it last night. I removed the seat so I could bring it in the garage with much more light and flip it and spin it and see all the angles quick and easy. I had one question regarding the flap in the back of the front seats keeping you from grabbing all the straps from the front when you push them through. These videos should clear any questions up. It is slightly different then my exact situation, but if you can't figure out how to install your covers from the help given in these videos, then I hope you dig ditches for a living and aren't allowed to drive the vehicle you're attempting to install these seat covers in..

Picked up my box on my way to work..... IS WORK OVER YET???????

 

Yes it is! Go Dodgers!!

 

Not enough install pics posted. Da fook ppl.

Psst doug I'm gonna send you a pic everyday of mine once installed until you install yours

 

Finally got mine in the mail. Should have them on by the weekend. Thanks again for setting this up!

 

Np guys. It wasn't that bad.

Besides a few of you that will remain nameless *cough* Brent *cough*

 

Checked status yesterday and my covers were being cut. Today I got a tracking number and they shipped. Estamated delivery is friday.

 

For doug

 

Hahaha still waiting!

 

Same here man :/

 

So nice. Although it feels like I'm a good half inch closer to ny wheel.

Lumbar support makes my panties wet.

 

Mine came in yesterday, got the backseat done before it got to dark.

 

My covers got to the house today. They look awesome and I'm airing them out currently. Did anyone use the odor eliminator or any other of the products provided before they installed in the truck to get rid of the neoprene smell? Also, for those that have installed already. What is the general consensus, take the front seats out to make the install easy or leave front seats in?

 

I received my order on yesterday. I started to install the front when I got home, but had to finish this morning due to lack of day light.


After first seat install. I unbolted the seats, and disconnected the two cables under the seats. But, like a fool, I tried to do this with the seat still in the cab.


Time for the passenger seat.


This time, I took out the seat. It made it much easier, and took 1/2 the time.


Seat put back in.


From the other side


I opted for the back OEM pockets. They seem pretty nice.

This weekend, I'll put the back seat covers on there. I will have to say, the covers do have a slight neoprene smell. But that's to be expected from a neoprene based material. I didn't let them air out because I was too impatient to get them installed. And because, thanks to triathlons, I'm used to that neoprene smell. But if you're particular about smells in your truck, you may want to let them breathe after you unpack them.

Thanks again, Bennett!

 

i installed fresh outta the box. smells like champions

 

Mine just got here. I might start installing today but for sure tomorrow, kind of cold here today. I can't even smell a neoprene smell but I'm also used to it. I'd like my truck to smell like a dive shop.

 

Mine show they arrived 8 minutes ago on my front porch. All of a sudden, I don't feel so well.... Must have been lunch... I think I need to go home now.

I'll let mine air a few days. Also just bought a steam cleaner, so I'll wait for it to come in and I'll hit the seat before I put the Okole's in.

 

seems like 85 to 90% of you guys have yours already and the status of mine just switched to being sewn (another 5 to 7 days to ship). damnit haha. they should arrive right after i get my seat heater kit installed though. I'm telling myself I'll wait a few days and let them air out when they do get here, but I know once I pick that package up at the post office I'll want to put them on ASAP. I'll just crack the windows in the truck and they can air out that way. Plus as soon as they are on I'm taking the door panel off and removing the armrest so I can recover it to match the seats. Or maybe I can distract myself with the armrest project and let them air out in the apartment for a day or two.
