    What kind are those?

    I have clazzios, they're holding up better than the wet okoles I had in my 1st gen. Some people on here seem to think leather is for sissy who don't use their truck, IMO it is one of the tougher seat covers available.

    I paid $1200 and then had to install them myself. That's definitely a good price for what they are.

    The clazzio has good quality leather for a decent price. Here's the best price from a dealer I have found:

    Do you install new leather over existing cloth or remove the cloth before install?

    You remove the cloth before install. It's very similar to changing your socks. Remove cloth, put leather on. Very simple, just time intensive. It took me 2 weekends to do my double cab.

    What he said. I had a professional do mine because I hate recovering seats (did it once, never again), but it can be done yourself.

    It's a good habit to get in, anyway. Premature seat wear or not, sliding in and out of any driver's seat will kill it eventually.

    Wet Okole's. Makes the TRD seats just a little more comfortable. Seem to be holding up pretty well.

    I bought a set of Katzkin leather seats from John Huey 2 yrs ago (got them as a "clearance" set cuz they weren't a factory color match).

    uhhh.... uploaded pics before I finished the post and darn thing wouldn't let me keep typing.

    Won't say how much, just cuz I don't know how much John would appreciate that :p but it was pretty darn cheap. Took me about 3 evening to work through the whole thing, maybe about 6 hrs total? I also probably went from hardest (driver's seat) to easiest (back seats) cuz, well damn it... I bought them, I wanted to use them, so I did my seat first :D

    I don't know about anyone else, but I have a hard time dicerning that these things aren't a factory color, and a good friend of mine who just recently bought a Taco (I'm feeding him the infection) thought for sure that his had similar color cloth seats... that is until we walked over to his car and he realized they were the light grey cloth material typical in the early model second gens.

    I stupidly went with clazzio seat cover... I ordered custom two tone covers, at the time of order they told me it was a 16 week wait on being built. Six months later after and ten plus phone calls they are sending me all black ones because they did not get the ones i ordered in correctly :mad: So pissed that there lame customer service could not do anything to help best thing i got them to do was a three day ship, hoping they would step forward and do a next day or wholesale price... I would not go with this company again and if so dont do any custom made covers

    Based on what i've heard, DO NOT order directly from Clazzio. Order from one of their distributors who already have items in stock. I had a similar story as yours - I ordered two tone seat covers from them and was told 7-10 weeks initially, then after I called they changed it to 15 weeks. 22 weeks in I still had no seat covers so I cancelled through my credit card company.
