    Any comfortable, non gaudy seat covers that will at the very least not hold much heat, or at least not like leather tech?

    Ideally that allows air flow that does not leave prints on your legs when you wear shorts.

    I have settled on this. My wife won't stand for it, says it looks like NYC taxi drivers seat :) Getting close to convincing her.

    Believe it or not these cats actually feel pretty good as I had them on an older vehicle without heated/cooled seats.

    Definitely could tell a difference on 4 plus hour drives.

    Looking for something soft, are the beads therapeutic?

    Not sure about therapeutic as that is outta my pay grade, But my old back could tell a difference opposed to long drive not using them.

    Many of my buds gave me heck over them but at the end of the day, they didn't have to deal with my back issues.

    Now I just leave my heated seat on most of the time for a similar effect since I no longer use these in the 4Runner.

    They are still in my Tundra...:)

    I've got enough miles on mine now to be sure that it's staying in until it's time to use the heated seats.
