Double Cab Rear Folding Seats

Just in case some of you have not figured it out, here are some pics of where the headrests go when you want the back of the rear seats folded flat. I have seen some videos and pics of people taking them out and not knowing where to put them. Again, this is just in case you did not know.

 

Cool! Didn't know! Thanks for the heads up!

 

Actually, this feature helped me choose another Tacoma. I just traded my 2005 Speedway Blue TRD in for the new 2016 model. On road trips, I fold the seats down, throw some blankets back there, and the dogs ride peacefully the whole time.

 

wicked smawt toyota! thanks!

 

Did not know that. Thanks! Ive even flipped them down several times.

Now to just find the right non-skid tape so things dont slide all over the place.

 

Just get a cheap entry way rug, the ones that are pre-cut and rolled up ($15) from Home Depot and cut it to length (the one I got was the perfect width). When you're not using it, just roll it up and stow it behind the rear seats.

 

hmm..TIL

 

I've never paid any attention when I've flipped the seats down -- cool!

 

Thanks! Ya learn something everyday. Heck my salesman didn't even know this. He said to put them in the space behind the seat backs.

 

If you just didn't have to move the front seats up into the dash to have the room to fold down the rear seat......

Please make the truck 6 inches longer next time.

 

Well I'll be damn.

Brilliant! I didn't know this. Perhaps this should be noted in the Tips & Tricks thread?

 

Smart would of been them designing the seats to be folded down with the headrests in the normal position

 

That's nice to know.. Thanks

 

While shit and here I was getting pissed every time I had creases in my head rest. Thanks for that.

 

hell even my 2014 4runner does this. the headrests flip down and the seat cushions when flip forward, the bottom side are carved out to account for the flipped headrests.

 

Exactly. They do this on multiple vehicles. Just another shortcut to carry over on the 3rd gen to save them money

 

TIL. Thanks OP!

 

Something so simple, but never realized. Thanks for the tip

 

Thanks. Will make it harder for little dog to jump over the center console to get in front.
