Rich's fishing build 2015 4x4 SR5 Crewmax

A few months ago I picked up a new tundra. This will be my second Toyota as I was coming from a Tacoma.



A 2015 SR5 4x4 Crewmax TSS Spirt FFV.

Additons:

Wet Okole Seat Covers
Husky Floor Liners Front
Weathertec Floor Liners Rear
Tundra OEM Door Step Protectors (expensive vinyl tape)
TRD Sway Bar
Weathertec Window Deflectors
Weathertec Bug Guard
Kobalt Black Low Profile Toolbox​

 

First up was some seat covers. I choose Wet Okole's with Oem style map pockets.


I had to unbolt the rear seats to get the tears on but overall it was about 3 hours of stuffing and tucking to get them on and I'm very satisfied.

 

Do the wet okoles help with the heat? I have leather and would kill to have some cooked seats. I didn't know if the neoprene wouldn't get as hot.

 

Neoprene doesn't get hot to the touch. My bum gets a little warm sitting for 6 hours in the truck but air conditioning helps.

 

Heat shield from Amazon. Weathertec window rain guards and bug guard. I'm mixed on the bug shield. I don't know if I'll keep it.

 

It's kind of weird. I like my bug shield because it works. Some people hate them and yet the other day at Gander Mountain a guy came up and complemented me about my cool bug shield??? (what about my XD rims? my Nitto's?). Go figure. My bug shield does blend in. Not a bad match with my slate grey. That might have something to do with it. Offsetting colors sometimes can be funky. Everyone sees thing differently. They do work. At least mine does.

 

I love those seat covers, had them on my previous ride (which had cloth). New Tundra is leather though so I passed this time around.

 

OP, nice progress. Love the seat cover.

To a certain extent, bug shields are regional. Where I live, bug shields are very popular. Roughly 1 out of 3 trucks have one on it. We also happen to have a lot of bugs. When I visited San Diego area several years ago, I could not find a single truck with a bug shield on. I would imagine Californians have to struggle somewhat less with bugs than we do. Personally, I do like the look of the bug shield (Toyota calls it 'hood protector').
