Stock seat covers

[Daddy Rabbit]

Hi, I need to replace the bottom passenger seat bottoms front and back. This has probally been asked a lot but would you order the oem covers so they would match or do you know of another vender that would be better? 2013 with the beige seats. Appreciate your help.

The OEM leather is far superior to anything you, or your upholsterer, will find on the market. What you buy depends entirely on what you want...are you interested in maintaining the truck properly, which means using OEM parts, or is "just OK" good enough?

Same response for the seat cushions.

FWIW, the Lexus and Toyota covers are not the same; the cushions are.

Thank you. I plan on keeping this one for a long time. I'll go with oem.

If you install it yourself take your time. It's fairly tedious.

I don't think I will tackle it.

Hi, You dont happen to have a part number for the passenger side bottom in sandstone? I could not figure out how to ask on the parts thread.

Sorry, I don’t have access to the Lexus parts catalog, just Toyota.

Just to clarify, you mean the leather seat cover, correct?

Put your VIN in an EPC website (like PartSouq) and select the body section. You'll find all the parts you need there. Then, because you're in the south, DO NOT go to your local dealer. No matter how much they like you personally, they pay more for parts than you can buy them from a dealer outside the south. Try Ourisman Toyota's online parts website, once you have the part numbers for your VIN. The total price, plus shipping, will be less than your dealer pays for parts.

Thank you for the information. Much appreciated!

Is this something that an average person can do? Or would it be better to find an interior shop to have it done.

Shop.

Honestly, when my driver seat cover finally starts to tear, I might just pay one of my coworkers who are very proficient with seat work. I hate the hog rings and the steel bars in the foam and the seat heater elements and just the whole 9 yards.

This is what I'm faced with:

I take really good care of my seats, cleaning and treating, and I'm always careful how enter and exit to protect the bolster. Then a few months ago, the clip on my new EDC flashlight (that's always in my left Carhartt side pocket) snagged the leather and tore a hole. Pretty upset, as you can imagine. I've since modified the clip so this can't happen again.

I don't think this can be repaired, I'm looking at a new seat cover. Argh...

A new seat bottom for my 17" is about $700 +200 for the cushion + tools + hog rings. So for about $1,000 for one new seat bottom + my labor.

I haven't done it yet, but I might some day.
