@Chaser503 how are your Amazon Coverados holding up?

For those interested I had a good experience with CalTrend. Made in the USA and they have Cordura (1000D) and a budget version (500D) for those looking for a more durable cover. I also bought some of the Neoprene Waterproof for my highlander and it's on par to the WetOkole or whatever they are called


The escape gear covers look great and I was close to ordering but the majority of the cost being shipping doesn't make sense. It's just canvas material and if Caltrend can provide branded Cordura and a custom fit then it make sense.


I'll get some pics soon and post the brown cordura from Caltrend

Figured i update here and share the Coverado Seat covers on my LX470. They fit great, but you will have to cut a hole for the arm rest. Back seats are good and folding the seats up don't mess with them too much.
They have a slight foam inner pad that softens up the seat just that tiny bit more. i dig it. Quality seems good so far. I paid $120 for all 5 seats.

How are they secured. I got a customer set of vinyl covers that are partially secured with elastic and they slide around a lot. I had some Carhartt precision fit on another vehicle that were great and used nylon webbing and buckles, but I want vinyl or leather for the cruiser.

Looks like a decent option to cover my ridies that are already looking like crap. Thanks for posting.
 
So i believe that is because you have to modify it to fit the arm rest. As far as i can tell that seems to be the limiting factor in not fitting our LX.
 
I'm looking to buy the Ridies replacement covers for my 470. Has anyone chosen the "genuine" leather instead of the nappa? It looks like the Nappa would be smooth and a closer to OEM look/feel. They say that the genuine leather has a textured finish but is more durable. Trying to decide between the two.

I'd suggest doing some due diligence on Ridies before buying anything from them.

4.5 years and counting on my ridies.com replacement leather seat covers on nappa grain and still looks/feels great. I just don’t know now why they have so many complaints from customers especially here on mud, I guess customer service got really bad.

Thread 'New affordable seat cover option'

I have been getting a lot of interest in the various forums about my newly installed seat covers. So I figured I'd make a thread about it on here in case more folks are interested. The company is based in china but they have a local (to me) shop here in the greater LA area. They do a 3D scan of your interior for a fee if they don't have your interior in their database. I have an LX so I told them to use the LC measurements they just uploaded to their database.

The cost for two front seats, armrests, headrests, and center console was $310 and I paid them an additional $50 for the install...
