    Hello again fellows,
    I'm going to purchase seat covers for my Tacoma. I have a 2005 Tacoma SR5 4x4 w/access cab.
    For the front seat covers I need to know if I have:
    • bucket seats or sport bucket seats and of those I need to know if they have
    • integrated seat airbags.
    What do I need to look for to correctly ID my seats?

    Thanks for your help.

    Somewhere on the seat fabric and the plastic side covers, it should have a tag that says "SRS Airbag". If you have an SR5, it should be bucket seats. Hopefully someone else can clarify that also.

    You have the standard bucket seats w/out airbags.

    TRD sport, and Offroad models have the sport buckets, but in '05 neither had airbags.

    Well, I went ahead and ordered some non-neoprene seat covers, CalTrend Microsuede. They were only $160 ordered out of CARiD. I'll let you know how well they go on and fit and how well they look. I hope they hold up better than the custom seat covers that I ordered for my '96 Tacoma - they cost more and only lasted 5 years and the '96 Tacoma wasn't used that much. :mad:

    Here's what the Microsuede's are supposed to look like:

    I'll keep you posted! :cheers:
