From the time you place your call, it takes close to 3 weeks to get
them delivered to your door step, but it is worth the wait.
When the man or woman in the brown suit showed up at my door, both
times I opened the box right away and dug in to the installation.
The reason I bought these covers was I like to play around the water
during the summer, and I get tied of putting down towels in my rig to protect
the cloth seats from wet tush's. The Wet Okole's are a layer of nylon,
a layer of neoprene, and another layer of nylon and with padding in them
too.
They will keep your seat dry, and protect them very good. They feel
good too since they have a little padding in them.
I also choose to pay a little extra and have the name "SR5" put on
the seats.
I choose to take my front seats out as it is much easier to put the
covers on. There are only 4 bolts sized at 14 mm to take out and your seats
will slip right out with no hassle.
While my seats were out in the front, it was a good opportunity to
vacuum all of the crud that has collected there over the years.
Below are some pictures of the installation.

Notice how that there are straps that go underneath the covers to hold
them securely to the seats. These covers fit like a glove.
You do end up loosing the nice pockets on that back of the front seats,
but I have since added one of those accessories that straps to the back
of the seat to hold stuff in. It has lots of pockets and is a nice alternative
to the Toyota pockets.
The rear seat covers were much easier to put on than the fronts. First
I put on the bottoms ones and they were real easy.
For the rears you must remove the carpet that is on your seat back.
I have two amplifiers on the back of me seats, but it was not a problem.
You just have to pop out the plastic snaps that hold the carpet to the
seat back and fold the carpet back.
You then slip on the covers over the top of the seats just like you
would put on a shirt over your head.
Once on, you put the carpet back on. You do have to poke little holes
in the covers. That is for the plastic snaps to go through so they are
secured again to the back of your seats.
The cover were not at all hard to put on, and having the rear set now
made the truck look complete inside.
You also get head rests that match in the same material.

If you want to protect your seats to keep them looking nice, these are the right choice. You can take them off when you sell your vehicle, and your stock seats will look all the better for trade in or selling time.
