Talking Lookie what I got today!

Wet Okole's are the SH$T! Just got done installing them in the living room! These things are worth every penny. They were a bit tricky to get them on nice and smooth and tight but with an extra person it was no problems. They come with really nice buckles to snap underneath no stupid tying strings like I've done with other covers. Corey I took the side pieces off my seats and ran the straps down through there for a real clean install. Also as you can see in the pic I zip tied all the loose ends up so I didn't have to cut them off in case I need em later to adjust with. Best of all these things are sooooo comfortable. Feels like a totally different truck now. At least the seats

Here's a before and after pic. I never noticed how nasty my seats were till I looked close at this pic.



The install is nice and smooth when finished


I went with this embroidering because it kinda goes with my Taz scene. BTW that spot next to it on the cover is something on my camera lense I already went out and checked the cover..hehe


These things changed the whole atmosphere of my interior!

Cant believe none of you guys have given me crap yet for my Co-pilot "Spiro" the dragon. That thing around his neck is an airfreshner that says "Beer is proof that god loves us and want's us to be happy!" Thanks for the good comments!

Lookin' good Joey.
How do you get the side plastic pieces off?

You know, I still have not taken my seats back out yet to tuck the seat cover behind it.

When I put them on, I took the seats all the way out, but it looked like you can't put the fabric behind like you did unless you take that cover off.

I have been to lazy to pull my seats back out, so the Oke's are still on the outside.

Let me know how you take them off, and I might get around to it some year

Corey,

I did not have to take my side pieces off to get the covers under them. You just have to tuck them carefully. Unless the seat design has changed, you should be able to do it. I was able to install my covers without taking the seats out. It is much more of a pain that way but possible.

TS1, I have heard the 3rd genners have an easier time.
On the older seats, you have to take off the sides to get the straps under.

I tried when I first put the covers on, but I could not get the straps under.
