Go ahead and have them send you some fabric swatches so you can match the color without any doubt....

I agree with Emil, just be sure to compare the swatch with your interior - I've heard some people complain that the small swatches may not be a good representation of the color since a whole seat cover shows the color differently than a small square.

I'ev heard of some stink problem with Okoles. lI'd say get leather, it adds to resale value. Got mine for $450 I had to install tho which wasnt too bad

I originally wanted leather....expensive though. Where did you get yours for that price? What brand? I'd want door inserts too. How was it to install?

I'd say RTdawgs seats look good too.

I have the patches around here somewhere from Wet Okole - they are small though and I just would rather go by real owners experiences.

I got mine off of Ebay. Do a search on "4runner leather kit" or "4 runner leather kit" It was on clearence. I am very pleased with the product, looks factory. Installation took me 2 days(with no pervious experience)and yes it comes with everything including door palens and inserts. Door insert pars are kinda tricky but everything was made to fit perfectly just like factory and it did. Goto my webshot site below and check out the pics if you want.

I called Classic Soft Trim today, and it will be about $1200 for leather.
I know that the custom fitted Wet Okoles front and rear will run me about $500. I have also seen do it yourself leather $500-$900. I also realize that leather at least increases the value of your car (not to mention makes it more luxurious) whereas the Okoles can stink!! So I think in the end, I may just have the man install some leather for me Now if I add the rear view mirror with compass & temp gauge, that will be everything I wanted! I ended up getting more for my trade than expected, so that helps with the cost$.

I originally ordered 21-Lt-grey before i got the swatches. When the swatches did come in i found that 11-charcoal matched better so I called them up and had them changed. The seats are great. They did have a neoprene fabric smell when i first got them but have since dissappeared.
