Affordable, Decent Fitting Seat Covers for SR5 Seats

Hey guys, I have a 1985 SR5 excab toyota pickup and my whole interior is in really good condition and I want to keep it that way. I was looking to pick up some seat covers so I ordered the universal camo ones from Wally World but they fit like ˟˟˟˟ and are pretty cheap.

Does anyone know of any seat covers (universal or custom) that fit the SR5 bucket seats fairly well? I have seen custom pairs listed for $200 but I really dont need that nice of ones. Id like to keep it around $100 for the pair.

I will also take recommendations for floor mats (heavy duty, high walls) but will probably just end up buying the universal Wally World ones.

I think one of the go-to's for seat covers is Wet Okole, pricey but supposedly one of the best. There are lots of canvas seat covers out there, even with "tactical" pouches all over to hold junk.

For floor mats, I got some really good ones at Costco one year and they've held up for around 7yrs so far. They're very similar to something like a universal fit Husky Liner. I haven't seen anything high-walled Dital Fit Weathertech liner for anything older than a Tacoma. Wish they did make them for the older trucks, have them in my Cruiser and my Prius and love them.

Yea I'll be on the lookout for some decent universal fit floor liners.

And Yes I've seen the Wek Okoles but thats just too much for me. Id prefer to keep it around $100

The marathon covers are nice and tough. They can be pricey too but I like them better than Wet Okole.

John, do you have any pictures of the seat covers you mentioned? I am curious to see how well they fit the SR5 seats

BUMP. Saw a yellow 4runner in my local shop with some "x bound" brand seat covers that fit fairly well, but they seem to be sold out online

Alright guys, I found a nice solution. $21 universal wet suit seat covers from Costco.







For a universal seat cover, I'd say that their fit is about a 7-8/10. Yes it doesn't fit perfectly and they aren't the most sturdy things in the world but if you ever rip them you can just take it back to Costco and say it's defective and they will give you a new set. Plus I haven't sat in them for more than a few seconds so they aren't full broken in / seated yet.

What you guys think?

P.S. you can't order these online, its more of an in-store basis. I had to visit two Costco's to find them. The clerks also may be able to order them for you from their computer
