Full-coverage white Nappa leather seat skins that finally match the Cybertruck's white interior. They strap on over the stock black seats with no seat removal, keep the ISOFIX points and side airbag flaps usable, and hold up to a dog. This 9 min guide covers the Tesla Cybertruck front seats, center armrest and rear seats (EVBASE link in the video.
Overview
The Cybertruck's white interior comes with black seats. That contrast always bugged John, and after 3,000 miles the black seats already showed bolster wear, sunscreen marks, dog drool and car-seat imprints that a quick interior detailer wouldn't remove. EVBASE's white seat skins are real perforated Nappa leather with a Cybertruck logo and a rounded, futuristic pattern instead of the stock square stitching. The set covers the front seats, the center armrest and the rear seats. They come with gloves, clips and plastic retainers. The color sits a touch lighter than Tesla's synthetic white, but it matches the door panels well. Install is just straps: four on each seat bottom, with the backrests clipping to them. There's a little delivery creasing that should relax with heat. These are skins, not reupholstery, so they aren't a perfect factory finish, but John gives them an A+ for protection and looks. They wipe clean, beat a dog hammock, and similar covers he used before protected his seats for about 30,000 miles of beach and river trips.

Step by step
- 1
Why cover the seats▶ 0:08
The interior is white except the black seats. The black seats show sunscreen, dog drool and car-seat imprints, and white rejects more heat.
- 2
Inspect the covers▶ 1:21
Perforated Nappa leather with a Cybertruck logo, a rounded pattern and piping. The perforations don't go all the way through the padding, and elastic bands hold it in place.
- 3
Check the color▶ 2:18
It's real leather, so it's slightly lighter than Tesla's synthetic white. It still matches the door panels closely, far better than the black seats.
- 4
Rear seats: keep the ISOFIX points▶ 3:35
The rear covers leave the ISOFIX anchors reachable, and the seat still folds up.
- 5
Strap the bottoms▶ 3:56
Each seat bottom uses four straps, two per side. Pull them tight, then clip the backrest onto the straps.
Tip: If a cut-out lands on a seat-belt buckle, just work the buckle through. Small delivery creases should relax with heat.
- 6
Front seats▶ 5:05
Fit the fronts the same way. There's a flap on the side so the seat airbag can still deploy.
- 7
Check the backs▶ 6:44
The seat-back pockets still work and are roomier than stock. The seat backs still flip up and lock, though locking takes a bit more muscle.
- 8
Don't mix up the seat bottoms▶ 8:26
The left and right bottoms look identical. Keep the plastic retaining clip on the outside of each so you don't swap them. John did and had to switch them back.
Wiring notes
- No wiring: strap-on seat covers.
- Heated and cooled seats still work, but the covers may soften the effect a little.

0:00Up. Good girl. Go ahead and go up. Good girl. Oh, you like the new seat skins? Yeah, it's
0:08nice, huh? The Cybertruck, it comes with the white interior except the seats are black.
0:19It's always been a contrast for me that I've never really particularly liked the seat
0:27covers in general are usually pretty awesome. You can really see with 3,000
0:31You can really see with 3,000 miles. There's a little bit of bolster where I've always been a fan of the white interior myself because
0:41It rejects heat
0:42It prevents a lot. I really went these seats down before the video, but you could see the sunblock
0:46Sunblock transfer
0:50Dog drool transfer it's are all harder on the black seats plus white
0:56Just kind of opens it up a little bit. You could see a little bit of the
0:59Sunblock that are you wiped down with the McG wire is quick into your detailer, and it's still there and
1:01down with the McGuire's quick interior detailer and it's still there and then
1:06the seat covers will help with some of the imprinting from the car seats. Yeah
1:12and you can see the door panels are white except the seats are black black so
1:16always been kind of interesting for me and if you want to look at the
1:21the seat covers themselves. Just quick first impressions you could
1:26obviously the Cybertruck logo and that's pretty cool. Perforated leather
1:30kind of has a design similar to the Cybertruck.
1:36Not angular. There, there's a rounded imprinting but
1:40kind of futuristic looking. So you got the front seats,
1:45the center arm
1:46armrests and then the back seats here pretty well made third pad in mesh perforated but
1:55not all the way through the padding elastic bands will keep it in place. We'll see how
2:00the install goes. They do give you some tools so try to figure it out here some gloves
2:08some plastic retainer, some clips. And then this white sea interior, there's just a little bit
2:18lighter because it's real leather instead of Tesla's fake leather. I don't know if the video picks
2:25it up but it's a very close match. Obviously matches way better than the black seats. If you
2:32you want to just take a look compared to traditional white leather actually it's
2:38pretty even and yeah I would say it matches pretty well yeah we'll try it out
2:50see what looks like. Alright I did. did, it did half of them.
2:53in the back so back, you can- it to kind of tell, tell the difference I just wanted to show you guys the difference in pattern on the imprinting
2:59You see the stock Cybertruck seats have these square seam, and then this is more of a pattern
3:24and then there's a little bit of piping going on right here.
3:29sit nice and tight. I like the way multiple fasteners on the
3:35bottom. I'll go ahead and show you. First, the ISO fixed points for your car
3:41seats. You can still access them. Which is great.
3:48Nice and soft supple. You can still fold the seat up. You'll see how these
3:56bottom seat skins are covered. It's essentially just four straps, two on each
4:04side, and you just tighten it. And then the backrest, it clips on to the straps and
4:14the hole there. Got in the way of the buckle. Notice this kind of not a big
4:24deal I'm pretty
4:25I'm pretty sure with the heat the leather will rebound, nice and soft seats, just got to kind of remember
4:31Seats
4:32Just got to kind of remember that these are chest seat. Skins. They're not
4:37Seat replacement. So they're not perfect, but they're pretty incredible for what they are nice soft seat protection
4:50Yeah, if you want real 100% fit and finish you'd have to completely remove the
4:56Stock leather seats and that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm just trying to protect the seats and make it still look good
5:01So A plus here for these seat skins. Now I'm gonna go ahead and try to work on
5:07the front seats. You can see that the color matching is pretty awesome. Earlier
5:12I thought they were gonna be too yellow for the door panels but they're a
5:15perfect match. Ellie, okay, let's test out these new seats. Go ahead and go up, go up, up.
5:26Good girl. Go ahead and go up. Good girl. Oh, you like the new seat skins? Yeah, it's nice, huh?
5:31Yeah the seats, yeah, it's nice huh?
5:34Down, Ellie. Sit, sit, sit, sit. Good girl
5:41There, you're looking good
5:43Looking good. You like it? You don't have to be in the bed anymore, huh?
5:47See her paws. So these seat skins I've used similar ones before
5:53and I've used them at the beach and the river and they hold up really well against the sharp claws
5:59You can even see the towel is in the way
6:03The leather
6:05Good girl you like it. Oh, you're really comfortable, huh?
6:09Right here looks like it's still-back compatible as a nice flap, right here to pop out the airbag if necessary
6:17Let me tuck this back in
6:20Nice perforations. We'll see I mean with the heat and
6:24cooled seats
6:26I'm not sure how it would do, but I would just imagine you just lose a little bit of the the heat and cooling effect
6:33the original seats but that's not too much of an issue. See the fit me down here.
6:44Back here you could see that this still has the seat pockets it's actually really loose so you
6:50could fit a bunch more things than the stock seat pockets which is nice. And then up here you
6:56could see that this still pops up and then like to walk in place you got to use a little bit
7:02bit more muscle but still locks in place and you can kind of see the mechanism
7:05here's just a bunch of straps tightening it down, pops right back in place. I'm a
7:14big fan of using this seat covers instead of like the speach. I'm a big fan of using these seat covers instead of dog hammocks because I end up having to clean not only the seats but the dog hammock as well. This is nice it wipes off super clean just like the normal white leather Tesla seats. It lasts a long time I took my dog to the river or beach.
7:32to ocean i had three i had four at one point and uh they lasted like 30 000 miles and i took
7:39them off and the original seats looked real brand new
7:47get that down here we'll go around to the other side
7:56same thing over here seat pops up nicely
7:59you'd see that there's still some imprinting from the delivery process,
8:07because they just kind of smash them in the box pretty sure with the heat this
8:12will just rebound out, the time will tell, same airbags on this side, a good hint
8:26would be to use because this side the bottom seat bottom and that seat bottom looks identical
8:32but there is a plastic retaining clip so they'll have the plastic retaining clip stay on the outside
8:38and that way you don't. Mix them up like me because I ended up mixing them up and then I had to
8:42swap them back, no big deal. By the way, EVB is hooking them up again looking good with these white
8:49seat covers matching the rest of the interior now.
