I've had these on all of my seats and head rests for about 4 years now and they have held up great: Marathon Seat Covers

They are very HD and stay put. And yes they are camouflage, Advantage Wetlands, but it is a different pattern than the one on the site. If my camera was working I would post some pics. This is the best I could find on my PC: pic

This is all good stuff, thanks guys! - everyone seems to be all about the neoprene - doesnt anyone have sheepskin...I mean I know its tacky, but I can just imagine after a long day of skiing, sinking into that furry thing.

When I was little (probably about 10 or so) Mom got some sheepskin for her old Blazer and they were hot, smelled like sheep, and stayed dirty. While we live in the South and heat is ever-present here, I can't imagine them being AWESOME in the cold. Just smelled too much for my tastes. Side note, I will be buying Wet Okole's in the future, they get such amazing reviews, I figure it's gotta be worth the money

my wet okoles are neither hot in the summer, nor cold in the winter. they just look great and ward off water really nicely. (even saltwater, though i find it helps to sponge off the crusty stuff with plain water)

Can't wait to get my Okole's with beige camo middles. My tan leathers look more like dried up skin than supple seats.

It'sa a coincedence this thread popped back up as I just picked up a set of brand new OEM seatcovers for $30 from this girl I work with who just replaced her 3rd gen with a 4th gen and thought the seatcovers would fit the new Runner seats (doh!!!) but of course I just got a steal of a deal.

i had Okole's in my taco and i loved them, but then someone offered me the same price that i bought it for a year later and 30 thousand more miles on it. so there went my truck and my seat covers, but now i have my 4runner and i like it more than my taco.

I used the same kind of seat cover in my 92. I bought them back in 96, worked great ever since. I am going back to those in my 02 Taco.

Maybe we should attempt a group buy? I know I'd like a pair if I could get them slightly discounted.

Great covers makes the seat covers for the toyota dealerships and they are an exact fit. I have them in my '94, and it made a world of difference. I got the vinyl ones to put on my dirty old cloth seats. I think I paid 300 directly from them for the whole set instead of 625.00 from the stealership.

i got cheepie canvas ones, i know this isnt what you were looking for, but for less than 50 bucks, the front buckets are protected, and when they get dirty i can take them out and hose them off on the drive way, hang em up to dry, and they are like new.

much like those, but in green/tan. ill post some pics up of mine when i get a chance this weekend.

also be posting pics of the lift parts that are waiting to be installed.

so i know they arent wet oak's but, they do their job and look pretty rugged. kinda ditches the mall runner look. and it has the pockets below my legs for my mag light till i find some clips.
