    Is anyone else having issues with crushing the side seat bolsters on your seats from getting in & out of your Tacoma? My passenger side is getting wrinkled and is flattening out.

    i had the same issue... a nice pair of side steps will resolve that issue big time... it will allow you to climb up and then in verses sliding and putting all that wear on the side of the bottom cushion all the time... that would be the best bet. Or you could always carry around a step stool lol

    Seat covers are an option to protect the seat too.

    Otherwise like myself, if you keep rubbing right across the bolster to get it it will wear the material out over time.

    I believe this is an issue with any car seat. You really can't avoid that friction from sliding in and out unless you just kind of "hop out" of the car as I try to do lol then again maybe side steps would help.
