Default xA & xB seat covers

I have found a site on e-bay. It is an e-bay store called the seat cover factory, they have been making seat covers for toyota for over 20yrs They now make covers for the xA & xB. They include 12 pieces including all five headrests. I paid $67 and change including shipping.

I got them yesterday, the quality is very good! Man on man are they a bit*h to get on, cause they are such a tight fit. They do look like I have redone the seats with OEM fit and finish.

Got pics of yours installed? The price is certainly right. Look a little saggy in the Ebay pic though.

Sooo... you covered the special interior in your RS with these seat covers?

Looks to be a good price and product, but why pay extra for the RS interior and spend more money to cover it up?

I called them and ordered them in black cotton twill. The material is very nice, heavy too. I'm sure they'll last a good long time.

I have the black twill as well. I wanted some general protection since I'll be carrying a dog around some of the time. Thankfully he doesn't jump in mud puddles.

The sewing between the seat cover and the velcro isn't that great. Don't pull it that hard or it will start to come undone. Mine is already tearing on one side on the back seat. Overall, they're worth the money, especially compares to anyone else's prices.

I originally intended to just put the back seat cover on, but they are pretty nice. I may put the front on as well.

The twill is kind of like denim, as their other site says (www.seatcoverfactory.com). It is the same black color as the seats themselves.

If they end up making other colors, can someone post?

One day I may get pictures. I live in NC and there is some game on tonight, so I may be busy...

The driver's seat is stock, the passengers is with the black twill cover. The twill is a lot like the fabric that comes on the seats. I didn't specify a second color, but I'm happy with this one. The back seat has the cover on it. I'm trying to figure out how to remove some wrinkles on the headrest. Post if you want me to answer any more questions.

The seat backs are held in place by velcro (which can look kind of ghetto in the trunk looking at the back seat, but no one looks there I guess). This is a really tight fit.

The bottoms of the seats are strapped on with one or two pieces of velcro. You loop straps around the seats and connect the straps. I think the straps are kind of flimsy. The seat bottoms aren't as tight, and I'm guessing you don't want it to be 100% tight so you can give some room to conform to the seat and the straps are kind of crappy. There isn't anything to velcro to.

This isn't in the pictures, but you get seat pockets on the front seat covers.
