Where did you all buy your Wet Okole covers and how much?

I've finally realized that my universal fit seat covers have got to go. I've browsed and am very impressed with the quality, function and look of the Wet Okoles, especially those with the FX4 logo.

For those who have purchased them, could you tell me where and how much you paid.

I've had some bad luck in the past dealing with a couple of online vendors and would like to avoid a repeat.

www.wetokole.com however if you intend to call.. the dude that answers the phone is sorta of a retard... you'd do better to just order from the website and aviod calling at all costs... I called and now I'm terrified about just who is making my seat covers... I hope its not the retard I got the last 3 times I called with questions.. sheesh!

blacklariatfx4, I live about 60 miles from their California location, so I considered buying them, heck they even put them on free if you drop by. Then I talked to several who owned them and found that they are VERY hot in the direct sunlight, in warm climates. Sorta for beach and cold areas. I have no clue where you are located, so consider and be sure you are not going to be in a very hot sunny place with them. Otherwise, they seem very nice, and look good, except that like every other seat cover maker, they don't seem to be able to figure out the 40-20-40 thing.

You need to take a deep breath and relax. It took 3 weeks for me to get mine from the day I ordered. You'll get 'em, they'll be great, you'll be happy.

What is this suppose to mean? I have the 40-20-40 seat and the seat covers fit perfect, even on the center console section.

wet okole

i love mine. I live in CA also and got them installed for free. I have had them on most of my trucks and I found that they do get hot, but nowhere near as bad as leather seats. You do get the sweatty arss sometimes, but all and all they're the best covers you can get

I ordered mine on a Friday, stated that I had a Reg cab with the 40/20/40 seat with the seat belts built into the seat backs. The following Monday I get a call at work from them telling me that my year truck did not come with the 40/20/40 seat with the seat belts built in to the seat backs. She kept telling me only the Supercabs and Crews came with those kind of seat belts. After about 10 minutes of talking, I finally ask for the Ladys e-mail address and e-mailed Her pictures of my seats. For the next 3 weeks I kept thinking " sure hope the covers are right". Well they were right. Mine were only $319. Kind of high for a seat cover, but once you get them on, they are well worth every penny.

When I went to pick up the covers I found out that they have three different buildings. One is for ordering and show, one is for making them, and one is for install. Maybe they just can't communicate well enough to figure out the 40/20/40 seats. Anyway I got mine for 225 for the front pair (captains w/ seperate center console) and 225 for back seats. I just got the two tone with out piping.

Hi, Red Wing Nut (sorry that sounds like a bad joke when you say it like that...)
Do you have a pic of how it looks with your console folded down? The three or four I have seen did not look good unless the seat was up, something mine never is.

I have been pricing them as well. It seems Performance Products is cheapest if you order the front and back set you get 10% off.

For my other truck, I ordered direct from the website and their facilities are not far so I could have driven down if I had any problems.
Great build and fit...but I do agree in hot weather, it was unbearable for me. Now on my 2005 F-150, I have black leather which does get very hot in the summer BUT leather cools off MUCH faster than the neoprene. Just turn on the AC and its cool..butthe Wet Okoles never cooled down for me in the past...it was too much for me in the summertime.
