    I'm looking for recommendations for removable seat covers for my 2008 Tacoma TRD sport.
    Looking for seat covers I can put on when the dogs are in the truck or when I'm getting dirty and want to keep the seats clean but easy to remove when I'm clean and no dogs.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks
    Terry

    no decent cover is exactly easy to remove, you need to fiddle with straps a bit

    but anyhow, caltrend is nice enough, decent price and they last.

    if you want true slip on, bottom barrel but it does the job, look up Gorla Premium on Amazon,
    cheap, covers the seat, on and off super fast

    I’m cheap, I use a towel for the passenger side for the dog. Tuck it in the back and it works good and stays in place. Easy to take out and wash too!

    No I once bought some cheap ones on eBay for less than $20 I used just the seat portion and they were fine. Then I bought clazzio leather seat covers and I now use just the towel method to protect them and it seems to work for me. When the dog gets sand and dirt on them I can shake them out in 5 seconds and be done.

    I bought $19 seat covers from Amazon. 5 years later they are just now starting to wear out. No need for high dollar seat covers. Hell I bought replacement leather for my corvette for less than the ridiculous wet okolies taco owners buy.

    I had the Costco one's in my daughters Jeep for 3 years and they were fine. I've had them in my Tacoma for 9 months and they look brand new. They do not however cover the complete back of the front seats.

    I just ordered front and back Motor Trend seat covers on Amazon. They will be here in a couple days. I will let everyone know how it turns out.
    Thanks for all of the reply's.

    now to settle on which hidden winch mount to buy. Let the research continue.

    I bought these and leave them on but to disconnect is not a huge deal. About $85 at Amazon.

    Laugh all you want, but for those occasions when I need temporary seat cover protection, I use old bed sheets - not the fitted kind - the top sheet. Fold it up to get 2 layers of sheeting. When done - throw it in the washing machine. I may look like Jed Clampett - but could give a fxxk less. It works.

    the cheap 20-30 dollar covers work fine, you just never, ever want to use them unless needed

    the higher end covers are more for full-time 24x7, multi-year use

    both do the job though. cheap just looks, sounds, and feels cheap.
