Wet Okole coloring Alternative

For anyone interested in Wet Okole seat covers, the only coloring scheme they seem to have a sample of is the Charcoal on Black that ToyoGirl also has in her runner. I bought mine a few weeks ago and I have been really happy with the product and I thought I'd post some pictures (finally) in case anyone else out there wanted a different choice in coloring.

These covers are entirely black with full charcoal euro-style piping. I personally didn't like the thick charcoal stripe that they seem to have adapted to all of their examples on the website because it's not the same color as the interior of the 4th Gen. 4Runners. The charcoal piping I have is slightly different (matches the interior closely) and because there is less of it, the clash is less apparent.

If anyone has any questions, please post. These covers are a great buy no matter how you color them and I'd encourage anyone who is interested to look these guys up.

4Runners use "style Q" (sport bucket with headrest and thigh extenders) for the front seats. The rear seats, I believe --I haven't done my back seats yet-- are the inverse of "style M" which is a 60/40 split with headrests and a built-in armrest. 4Runner rear seats are actually "40/60" because our split is on the opposite side, the 40% size seat being behind the driver vice the passenger.

When you say they are a great buy, what exactly do you mean? I want to buy some, but the cost is a little high. Did you get a cheaper version?

Also, I see Webshots are having trouble hosting pictures for you. You can put one picture per post in this forum as long as it is not over 140,000 bytes. If you want to do this, it is OK to put 2 or 3 posts in a row with pictures.

Very nice! I have the same interior color combo and those look like they'd go perfectly. The only thing I'd hate is losing the storage pockets on the back of the seats, but I'm sure I'd get over that. If you don't mind me asking how much did they cost you?
 
And here is another one. I would be interested in what it cost, what do you considered a "Great Buy".

I was thinking about getting the same thing only in all black.

Those look great!

I think a front set is in the neighborhood of $275.

When you sit on them, do you feel the piping? Looks good, but wondering if it will be bothersome on a long trip.

No, I did not buy a cheaper version, but I think they're a great buy because they really add something to the interior of your truck. They're very distinctive (like you said, expensive, so obviously not everyone is going to blow 275 for them). They're also very comfortable and soft to the touch. Not to mention they add an unsurpassed level of protection to your seats while still looking really nice. I haven't found any reason to regret buying them in the slightest, and furthermore I'm now trying to save up to do the rear seats!!

I'll be gone until Sunday the 30th of Nov, so please pardon the delay in any replies.

With shipping they cost me 325. That's also taking into consideration the added cost for the TRD grahpics and the piping. Very costly, but they'll last for the long haul and they've definitely added something to the car. That makes them worth the money, in my opinion.

This is definitely somethin you won't need to worry about!! The piping is situated such that your weight is not pressed against and exposed ridge. The seats are very comfortable and the piping really adds to the look. You won't feel it at all, and I drive a 400 mile round trip every other weekend.

How hard were/aren they to install?

The installation took a little bit of creativity because it's hard to get your hands under the front seats where you have to snap three buckles thanks to all the wiring and the harness for the actual seat. All things considered, it took me and my friend about half an hour to put both seat covers on the two front seats.

You do lose the pockets in the back, but on the other hand, every door has a ton of space to hold your paraphanilia. Or you could do what I do and throw it somewhere and deal with it later :D
