2014 Wet Okole GB - ended

got mine today, and got them installed today. take the seat out. it'll save you a lot of swearing and swiping the slider grease trying to finger everything into place under the seat....

dat smell doe... mixed emotions on it. at least it doesn't smell like a carney's underpants like my old prerunner did after a combined 24 months of storage....

 

Seat covers turned out great! Thanks for setting it up Bennett!

 

Got mine, they actually only took 3 days to get here from when they shipped (heads up to Army cat in Germany). Opened them and had a WTF!? moment. Let's just say, the headrest holes are not as obvious as I thought they would be.

Will post pics in a couple hours.

 

Well i think somebody up above said they thought the white border didn't look bad, but you can sharpie it in black if you think it'll look better.

If you send me a picture when you get them, I'll photoshop what black would look like so you can make a decision.

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Twist.

 

Mine were shipped yesterday. Scheduled to be delivered tomorrow!

 

Okay, finally got back in town and got some pictures. Sorry for the sun glare. Overall, I love these things. They add a lot of extra cushion, and the lumbar support felt great driving in to work this morning. The install itself took less than an hour, and that was taking all the seats out. You can see from the picture I need to tighten up the back seat a bit.

 

Fedex is supposed to deliver today!!! Yesssss!!!

 

My covers just switched to getting sewn today.

 

^^ dat sig

 

Some tundra driving MOD here re-sized it. Must've upset him mom or something.....

 

Black with white piping, white logos. Install time, ~2 hours cuz the passenger seat coin holder tabs were a bitch to get to.

 

Okay man sounds good...can you do the outline red and black thanks

 

Currently @ Wet Okole getting my covers installed. Pics later.

 

Ordered 2/17
Arrived 3/19
Installed today

It took a little over an hour and I didn't bother removing the seats.

For extras I ordered the cell phone pocket & OEM map pocket on both seat along with a slightly custom Tacoma logo.

After:


Here is a picture of the cell phone pockets (Galaxy S3 & SOG multitool)


And here is the OEM map pouch

 

Yeah PM me a close up of the graphic with decent neutral (white) lighting.

Nice weather today so I installed. Took me about 3 hours -- I have no idea how some of you are doing this in 30-60 minutes.
To get good tight fit, removing the front seats is pretty much mandatory. I don't see how I could have done it as well if I left them in. Snug on nearly every edge, overall I'm pretty happy with them! (except for the red border around "TRD" that I had to sharpie in).

 

I installed my covers today in about 3 hours. It was definetly easier to take front seats out to install covers and get a tight fit. Also, removing front seats makes it easier to tidy up excess straps on seat cover. Like the above post I am thinking about blacking out border surrounding TRD graphic. The border was an unexpected surprise. Overall, really happy with my new seat covers. Thanks again Bennet707.

PS. sorry for the sideways pics. I am computer retarded

 

If you're going to black out the border (which I personally think looks much better), I have a few recommendations.

First, I know you already put them on, but it will be much easier to color it in flat out on a table. It's a pretty small border so you need a steady hand and it being on the seat would make it difficult to keep straight lines.

Next, if I had to do it over again, get one of those sticky lint rollers and roll it over the graphics before you start. The graphics are of the glue/colored-fuzzy-threads type, so rolling tape over it several times (with pressure) will remove any loose threads. This will help keep lines cleaner/sharper and prevent rub-off of the ink you use.

Lastly, I first tried a felt-tipped black pen. Don't use those -- the ink in them does not dry right. I tried a Sharpie brand super fine tip on the 2nd seat and the ink doesn't come off after about 6 hours.

Just be real careful if you do it -- if you make any mistake and accidentally color or smear ink onto the white part of "TRD", you will not be able to get it off without using a white paint pen or something.

 

So I got mine installed today by wet Okole store in Santa Ana, CA. Those guys are quick. They installed both front and back in 25 minutes and didn't remove the seats. Glad that I went and had them installed by the pros.

 

I got my covers today and I installed them this afternoon! I took the front seats out and it took me about 2 hours to do the front and back. They look AWESOME and feel great! Pictures to come tomorrow when I get better light. WOOT WOOT!
