1st gen seat cover pattern?

i bought some blankets I’m hoping to cut up and see into covers but wanted to see if there was any beta out there for patterns that I can work off of....


Thanks

 

Unfortunately I've never heard of anyone having patterns on these forums. Have you tried asking an automotive upholstery shop?

It would be a bit of work but you could pull the covers off of your seats and undo the stitching to copy them

 

If you want the original fabric types, ask your auto upholstery shop to see their Detroit book for the year of your Toyota Tacoma. Some shops have, some don't. They have different cloth patterns depending on the year of your truck. You may or may not be able to locate the original fabric cloth. Unfortunately, the OEM seat cover are no longer available unless you find a seat in a wrecked vehicle that's still in good condition. I see lot of pictures of 1st generation Tacomas with damaged driver seats especially when you touch the bottom cushion closest to the driver's door, myself included.

 

Are you wanting to make a cover to go over the top of the factory cloth, or are you planning on taking the factory cloth off and completely replacing it?

 

I’m hoping to make a cover to go over the factory cloth. I bought some blankets and loved the pattern and think it will be a good winter look for the interior. I’m thinking the patterns supplied by an auto upholstery shop would be the patterns for a reupholstered seat which would be too small if I were trying to make a seat cover

 

Thanks wulf, love you avatar btw.

I’m hoping for a seat cover and don’t want to mess with reupholstering the seats

 

I have a set of wet okole seat covers that I’m not using anymore. Black and Tan. You could buy those and make patterns from them? The issue for you would be cost of a nice seat cover that you’re going to cut up.... or just use.

Let’s see these blankets that you’re wanting to use. I do a little sewing myself and am interested.
