    My reg cab has the same base fabric yours does, but mine are buckets, and I know how the seats stain from just plain water, especially the side bolsters. what I fianlly did on mine was to take a spray bottle with plain water and just mist the entire seat, take a towel and blot away any excess, and you are back at how they were when new. That is if the seats had no spills etc, just water spots/streaks.

    I think that was a given ..... or maybe not.

    Most of us are guys (who tend to be taller than women) and have the seat back.

    Besides ... it holds a bag of chips just right!

    It is a given, but this is not the first time it has been discussed and quite a few people seem to not understand why it is there. I can't imagine even the shortest of people driving a Tacoma with the seat fully forward, as it does have some range of travel that is virtually unusable. Imagine the airbag going off seated that far forward, it would extrude itself around the driver and slap them in the back of the head:D.

    i don't need to slide the seat forward to get to stuff in the back, and i have alot of crap back there. the seat folding forward is enough. (for me)

    Go to the site and follow the prompts ... my colors are charcoal gray and black (no piping)... the "Tacoma" was an add on offered at the time .... or call them direct ... they were great to work with ... very customer friendly.
