wet okole seat covers

anyone have experience with them, how durable r they, r they easy to maintain, do they make u sweaty like leather or vinyl

Got em in the wranglers, nice covers, fit like a glove. The seat covers in them were shot on one, vinyl that was cracked. Bought the ocean camo fronts and rear almost 3 years ago now and they are still in good shape even with the top being off alot of the time and heavy sun exposure. I will probably pull them off over the next week or so and throw them in the washer or however they recommend then put the treatment on they also recommend from what I remember reading on the site.

I've had a set in my 91 for probably about 6-7 years now and have loved having them the whole time. They add an extra 1/2" of padding so if your seats are a little soft now it'll help with that too. The lighter colors do show dirt pretty easily so you'll have to keep them somewhat clean which isn't too hard. On a hot day you will end up a little sweaty because the neoprene doesn't breath, but it diefinately isn't nearly as bad as vinyl. Mine are starting to be worn out after a lot of butt miles and some temperature extremes (my lazyness on the care aspect probably didn't help either). Overall I really like them and as soon as I can get the money saved up I'll be replacing the ones in my Jeep and be adding some to my VW

I have had them for 2+ years. Great fit, a little extra cushion and pretty low maintainence. I will get a little sweatier than fabric but not near as hot as my friend's vinyl in his yj.

I have a full front and rear set in my pickup and I love them. I put them on 3 years ago when the truck was only a few weeks old. I recently took a peek under the driver's cover and the OEM fabric looks like new (and I'm tough on seats).
They fit great, even around the center seat/console and up around the shoulder belt towers next to the headrests. I clean mine once in a great while with the shampoo they sell by washing them right in the vehicle, as recommended - after all, they're waterproof! I ordered mine with a custom graphic - the Chevy Duramax logo. They'll put anything you want on them - just send them a graphic.
They Are waterproof, and they Do insulate, so I expect they must be a little warmer than uncovered seats. But I have never noticed any difference and have never found them uncomfortable.
The seats in my Jeep are past trashed and not worth worrying about. But if I had a nice new Jeep or when I get another new truck I will definitely be getting another set of these covers.

Why do you need the waterproof seat covers? Im not asking to be ignorant or knock anyone who has neoprene, the reason I ask is because usually people dont need waterproof covers all the time. Another option is a set of these,http://www.covercraft.com/seatsavers®.htm which are not waterproof but are good day to day seat protection and a set of these to slip on when needed http://www.duragearproducts.com/seat_covers.htm, or http://www.carbox.co.uk/acatalog/Seat_Covers.html#aHDCF or http://www.silcom.com/~hubcaps/seatprotector.html or http://www.seatshield.com/product_i...overs&osCsid=fec3cfa8d77b9afb24f39cf4da8cfdb1 which fit loosly like a bag and can be quickly slipped on when needed and just as easily slipped off to be hosed off and dried then folded up and put under the seat till needed again. they can also be easily moved from one vehicle to another because they are one size fits all. We have three Jeeps and it was going to be very expensive to get Neoprene for all so we went with the option of having a set of waterproof covers that can be moved from one to the other. Again, not knocking Neoprene, just giving another option that has worked for me

Does any one know if any of the sponsors sell these covers? Would prefer to support sponsors before going to Qtec.

I take it you haven't priced new seats . . .
:wave:

okay here is a silly question what is the website for the wet okole seat covers, i need to clean them i have no clue.... but for the seat covers they are awsome , alittle sweaty in the summer time, also they keep your butt warm in the winter time and the extra padding diffently helps any old seat feel new again.

duh never mind i have diving store down the street from my house so i can pick up wet suit shampoo there...

I've had them for several months now. They seem to be well made. Im not sure of the longevity, but they do fit properly. I have 98 XJ and it's in decent shape. These covers have saved me from mud stains and some spaghetti I spilled once. rofl
