    I have a 2012 and know the bench seats do have side airbags - what about 2011 and earlier?

    I'm asking because Coverking hasn't responded to me and I'm guessing they haven't updated their seat covers.

    But you can prove me wrong...

    Check anywhere near the seat or on the roof close to the window. There should be something saying "air bag" if there is one.

    Coverking told me the bench seat covers will work with side airbags, but I'm still skeptical...

    Guess I'll roll the dice for $150.

    should be all models from 2009-up
    thats when they did a bunch of improvements including side front bags and curtain

    i believe it was called the star safety program that they implemented on most or all of toyotas.

    They'll work

    I have Coverking seat covers on my 09 bench seat with air bags, it has an area in the seat cover which opens in case air bag deploys
