    How do these mount on the back seats, do they go under the plastic cargo trey on the back of the fold down section of the rears?

    Yes I am still offering these. Please PM me directly for quote.
    Yes, this is a direct replacement for your cloth. So you will have to remove the cargo tray and cloth the replace with your new leather

    Are you located in Tucson?
    I'm going to have to drop by when I'm ready to buy these. Hoping for later this year as we approach winter!
    Whats the difference between the standard and premium?

    Front seating contains the same leather vs vinyl but as you can tell from this chart the rear seating of the Premium kit contains more leather than the Standard. The vinyl is actually more pliable and resistant to scratches so if your hauling kids/dogs the Standard kit may be your best route?

    It seriously still looks new. No wear marks or flat spots and I've probably put 20k miles on it since installing these. Plus I run heat & cool through them (not sure if that helps or hurts longevity lol).

    Could you elaborate on the degreez heated/cooling set up, how does the cooling work? You just sold me on seats being cooled!

    Degreez if a complete heating and cooling kit all with 1 switch (3 settings for heat 3 settings for cool) the seat cover ordered must be perforated AND include the special reticulated foam to accommodate this unit. The fans/technology used works well and installs in approx 1 1/2 hour per seat and reports 15 degrees cooler than the interior of the cab ️
    Hope this helps?

    I sometimes get a numb back from keeping my cooled option on lol seriously though, been times when I thought it quit working then I leaned forward and stuck my hand on the seat and it was nice and cold... my back just got numb like from an ice pack or something.

    Well worth the upgrade!

    This will definitely be on my list unless I win a mini lotto and can afford some ergo recarros...

    A couple curiosities -
    Is the Tuscany leather any thicker than the standard?
    Also wondering about the suede - since its synthetic, I'm assuming PVC vinyl or the like - how well does it hold up and feel compared to leather?
    Does the heat/cool kit add any thickness?
    (I actually hope it does as my TRD sport seats really need extra padding on the lower part of the back insert of the seat - currently feel like I'm hunched over with stock seats...)

    If anything the Tuscany may be a little thinner as it is a softer more subtle grade. The Degreez (heated/cooled) adds a lil bit of padding due to the reticulated 1/4" foam that is sewed in. Even if it's not the Degreez Katzkin sews in a 1/4" into every kit for added comfort.

    Are there any other options for switches to the heated seats? I would like to get something that looks more stock to take up the space of a plank slot under the heat/cooling knob area.

    Do you show anything for '07 Access Cab in clearance right now? I was able to find a link to a list somewhere but there were no prices listed. Thanks!
