    Would anyone know if the Clazzio seat covers come with a console cover?? I've seen it mentioned on Tacoma World but don't see it on the Clazzio website?? My order should be here by the end of this week. I have a 2017 SR5 Access cab in Barcelona red and ordered the black/Dark gray / red stitching seat covers. It's driving me crazy trying to find a console cover???
    If Clazzio does not make them, does anyone know a good console cover? I've seen the $20 neoprene ones on Amazon, but don't really want to go that route??? Thanks for the help and have a good day!

    Clazzios come with the Console Cover, no worries. Although for some reason that was one of the hardest pieces to get on, for me at least.

    Whew-thanks a lot and that's good news!! I've watched some you tube videos and the whole ordeal looks to be a pain in the ass, but in the end it is well worth so I'm told. Looking forward to fighting with the covers! thanks for your reply!!!

    My set came with a console cover. I agree that it was hard to put on. They also include a useful plastic paddle/knife that helps a lot on the console cover and spreading the leather over the headrest attachment points.

    I saw a guy using the plastic knife thing on the headrest seat holes-have yet to see the console cover install. Are the instructions that come with the covers understandable??

    The instructions were adequate as I recall. The only thing I was confused on was the front seat and where to hook the clips to under the seat. Got a flash light and saw the bar they were talking about. These really aren't that bad to put on. I started with the back to get a feel for it and after that, the rest go on pretty much the same way. Use the plastic knife to tuck the front seat covers into the plastic around the bottom of the seats as well. I would suggest heating the covers up a little bit whether that's just lay them out in the sun or whatever, but it does help. Just take your time and note that if there are wrinkles from the way they were folded in packaging, they will come out over time. These are my favorite upgrade to my truck. Everyone that opens my truck says oooh leather... Then I tell them they are seat covers and no one can believe it. They look that good.

    Thanks for the info. Wyant-I appreciate it. I plan to watch some more video on you tube today as well. I have seen several photos of vehicles with these installed and they do look very much like factory leather. I think it's a good investment as I plan to be driving this truck a long time. I doubt I get them done this weekend as we are going from the 70s to the highs in the 30s and possible snow or sleet Sat. night into Sun. morning........crazy ass weather in central VA!! Thanks again for your time!!

    I'll do my best to post some pictures Mike. There's some good video on you tube of the Japanese owner of the company doing an install-of course he's a master at it. It seems that the key is to turn the covers inside out to slip them on there-especially the back of the seat. I don't think it will slide on there very easily otherwise?? If you get done before I do-pics too please and if I learn any tricks I'll be sure to pass them along! David

    WOW!! That looks like factory leather to say the least!! Mine are black/dark grey/red and will match the interior perfectly. They came in last night and all I have done is opened the box so far and looked. The instructions sure are in small print, but I've seen some you tube videos that are helpful. Well it's in the 70s here today and then it goes south......all next week 40s and 20s.......damn might be a bit before I can deal with the covers. I gotta a hair dryer but I think they will go on better if it's just generally warm outside?? Thanks so much for sharing and offering to help!! if I run into problems I'll certainly get up with you-thank for the offer Donatodellapi!! Have a good day! David

    Definitely watch some YouTube videos. But it's pretty simple. Just take your time massaging them on and pulling down as you massage you get them as tight as possible. It's a MUST to do the half inside out method to slide the tops on, or it won't be possible. It will be a little easier if it's warmer out, but I did most of mine at night and it wasn't bad
