Hi Sam,

I just went through this with my KX-R. Ended up getting a set from Seat Cover World (how corny is that?), through my local parts mob. I haven't had time to fit them up properly yet, but throwing them on they seem to fit fine. Only front and middle rows are supplied, but the rears will only be used rarely on mine, so that's no drama. http://www.seatcoverworld.com.au/fabric/custom-fit/toyota/toyota-kluger.html

They're quite close to the original fabric in looks and appearance, much better seat covers of old, and are fully airbag compatable.

Cost was a few coins short of $200. According to the bloke behind the counter, the rears are a swine to fit, nothing wrong with the covers, just a design feature of the Kluger :wacko: . After Christmas, I'll give it a go...

Got my 2013 Camry covers done late last year. Tried aftermarket ones from a place in Hawthorn but they didn't fit just right.

Ended up going with the factory covers which fit without issue. Bought em off ebay from a toyota dealer.

Unfortunately factory ones weren't an option on the Klug, Toyota only supply fronts. It's not me that dribbles ice cream etc. on the seats (not that I'm admitting, anyways!), so rears were a necessity.

Fitting them is about on par with other aftermarket covers - lots of reaching under seats and cursing! The fit itself is great, I threw the driver's one on ages ago without bothering to tie it, and it's still in place. The backing of the covers "hangs" onto the factory upholstery quite well.

They use both cloth ties and Velcro (hook and loop) tabs, the latter where ties wouldn't work or would be visible. There are lots of ties - the sit-on bit of the fronts alone has nine! Despite what the man in the store said, back and front are about the same difficulty, not helped by my worn out joints that make reaching under seats from front and back at the same time "challenging".

The extra padding helps the somewhat flat seats a lot, though this less of an issue on the driver's seat, lots more use has softened the cushion nicely (no comments about a Homer Simpson butt grove!)

Help this helps some.

      2001 Toyota Camry wagon passenger side locks not working

      Gday, I've got a 2001 Camry wagon which has been having locking issues for a while now, just started occurring out of the blue. There is no fob so we manually unlock and lock from the driver side door, however the rear and front passenger doors consistently have issues. Either when we unlock one or both doors don't unlock and must be unlocked from inside the car, or when we lock it one or both don't lock and the car beeps. To fix that, we open the door, lock it from the inside, the lift up the handle and close the door before releasing the handle. That fixes the locking issue. When testing the locks from inside the car, I can see that they partially lock and unlock, so I'm wondering if they need to be replaced entirely or if there's some other way to fix it. Cheers

      2002 Hilux Engine Replacement

      I have a 2002 Hilux that is meant to have a 5le engine but i think it was replaced with a new engine with a turbo before i bought it. Its a different engine compared to what is in the manual - eg the alternator is at the bottom not the top as per the manual. The engine is seized - tried roll starting downhill and wheels just locked up. I cant find what the engine is. Any ideas on where I would find it? Also 5LE engines are hard to find - any ideas on what else i could put in? Does a 1KZ fit?

      Engine conversion

      I have a 2002 Hilux that is meant to have a 5le engine but i think it was upgraded to a turbo version before i bought it. Its a different engine compared to what is in the manual - eg the alternator is at the bottom not the top as per the manual.

      Boot Dimensions?

      Hi All, Greetings from the UK. I wondered if any kind folk could help me out. I am trying to get hold of some measurements for the boot/trunk of later model Fortuners. Does any know the height, min width (between the stowed 3rd seats) and the min depth from the 2nd row seat backs to the tailgate? Trying to work out if I can get all my luggage on board before I travel. Hope someone can help. Cheers KP

      2007 - Floor mat

      Original mats but in sandstone colour but you could possibly get them dyed a different colour. https://www.nunawadingtoyotaparts.com.au/toyota-camry-sandstone-carpet-mats-set-from-2006-t

      2007 - floor mats

      Hi. I am just reposting this here from the Camry section just in case the broader community might be able to help. I have a 2007 Grande which is still in good nick, except for the drivers floor mat. Normally it wouldn't be a problem to replace the floor mat but because it has the word CAMRY embroidered into the floor mat, I would like to replace it with the same again. I'm feeling reasonably confident that a Toyota dealership would just laugh at a request for another factory one so my question is, is it even still possible to locate an embroidered floor mat for my 17 year old car? If so, where? Or is there a business that will replicate the original?

      Front parking sensors

      We have a 2021 VX Prado with Toyota bullbar that is the doing same thing, the dealer did a patch under warranty which made no difference. The dealer now says they fixed it under warranty (by doing the patch) and there is nothing else they can do so if we want them to keep looking at it we will be paying for it. That is not our understanding of how warranty works and will be taking this matter further.

      Cruise Control Not Engaging

      Hi. My 2008 Rav 4 cruise control has not worked since I’ve owned it. When the on button on the stalk is pressed nothing happens, not green cruise dash light or anything. Previously, I’ve had a problem when the ABS, VSC and parking brake light all turned on but that was fixed by a brake light switch replacement. But the cruise still does not work. I’ve checked all the fuses and all are good. Is this a common issue and does anyone know why it’s happening. thanks

      Head Unit with Apple CarPlay

      Hello everyone, I'm sure there would have to be someone with the same topic but I'm looking for a good head unit for my wife's 2014 RAV4 with Apple CarPlay that wirelessly connects to the phone and has set up so she can connect steering wheel controls and still use her reverse camera, any suggestions please? Thank you so much everybody!
