Help with 1st Gen 4Runner SR5 Gray Cloth Replacement
Unfortunately my latest, and possibly final 1st gen restoration project has hit a snag with Factory Cloth specs again!

I have a small tear in the Drivers seat - my local Trim Shop looked through 3 Detroit books, but no luck finding anything on '87 SR5 Gray Cloth.

See attached pics of both the factory cloth and the "closest match" she could find. Any ideas?

I've searched forums and Ebay for replacements, but no luck so far. If we can find the specs on the material, she may be able to find some of it.

Try SMS - https://smsautofabrics.com/ Send them a sample to match.

Maybe source a rear seat and use the material from it?

Mine is a 2nd Gen not 1st so maybe there aren't any 'used' options but I found a donor vehicle and swapped interior upholstery & trim pieces. I bought the donor for $500 and have swapped a bunch of parts; I believe I can still get $500 for it once I'm finished swapping parts.

Used 2nd gens (especially 2WD) and plentiful and cheap in my area

Here are a few before/after photos I posted in my 'New Member' thread. I need to move this over and start a build thread.
First 4Runner

Anyways, good luck with the project!!

The cloth looks close to the EU Switzerland SR5 from 88. It's a bit darker and "bolder" than my US CA 86.

Great thread. I have an 86 with pretty thrashed upholstery. I'm hoping I can replace with authentic materials.
