Seat Covers for TOYOTA LANDCRUISER 70 SERIES VDJ 05/2008 - ON DUAL CAB REAR BENCH CHARCOAL CHALLENGER

This charcoal Challenger cover is cut for the rear bench of a 70 Series Landcruiser dual cab and nothing else — the front buckets stay bare. Newer 70s put hardware in the back seat that the older ones never carried, so the five useful minutes are the ones spent in the cabin with a torch before ordering.

Rear bench only, front seats not included

The title says rear bench and the supplier's pack note agrees: rear seats only, headrests included. No driver cover, no passenger cover. Ordering the back half when the whole cabin was wanted is the most common mistake in this range, because rear-only and front-and-rear listings sit side by side under nearly identical names. Covering the fronts too means a second item.

Look for an airbag tag on the bolster

Run a hand along the outer edge of the backrest before anything goes over it. A stitched tag or moulded lettering low on the bolster marks a seat-mounted airbag. The supplier states this cover is airbag compatible; nothing supplied with the product describes a tear seam, a weakened stitch line or any deployment testing, so that line is published as theirs rather than ours. Where a tag is present, hand the job to an auto trimmer.

Top tethers, belt stalks and a bench that folds

A dual cab bench hides more than it shows. Child restraint top tether anchors may sit on the rear face of the backrest or on the cab wall behind it, and the strap wants a clear path. Belt stalks come up through the base cushion, so each buckle has to reach its own opening rather than get buried. If the bench lifts for storage behind it, check the skirting clears the hinge.

Key features

• Cotton canvas outer: a heavy woven face that takes boots, dogs and work gear without going shiny.
• Water resistant, not waterproof: the supplier's term, so spills wipe off rather than being sealed out.
• Polyester backing and skirting: heavy-duty enough to stop the cover creeping down the squab.
• Polyurethane foam backing: padding and insulation over a bench that bakes all day.
• UV resistant: slows the fade that ruins untreated fabric outdoors.
• Rear pocket: flat stowage for straps and paperwork.

Before you fit these

• Buy on the title: dual cab, 05/2008 onward. The supplier's text names wagon and Troopcarrier codes and a 2007 start; that broader claim is not carried here and has been flagged.
• The front seats are not covered by this pack.
• Airbag-adjacent fitting is work for a qualified person, with the vehicle checked before road use.
• Refit the headrests and test every belt and tether once you are done.

Line the tag check and the pack contents up with your own dual cab and the back row is sorted in charcoal. Ask us first if anything looks different to the photographs.
