Well... good point Alex... I need to know how to install them as well, because I plan on ordering a set myself one of these days...

Install for the Fronts is pretty straight forward,the rear seat can be a pain because of the rear seat back removal.I have put on 3 sets it is not to difficult.Depending on your model,do a search for the rear seat back removal, there is a few threads on here explaining how.

toolcrib do you have to remove the side plastic and such on the fronts or can you pull them between?

No-you should be able to feed the straps through without removing the side piece.The front seat portion (bucket seats) the part you sit on ,installs with three straps one across- two front to back. The back portion of the bucket seat, basically slips on and attaches itself together at the bottom with velcro.

How snug do the Wet Okole fit the seats? I can't stand seat covers that move around underneath my butt, or fit loosely.

I've been back and forth between the Wet Okole seat covers, and just getting leather seats for the truck (Katskinz or OEM leather if I can find it).

Can you send me some pictures when you get them on?

I do lawn mowing as a side job and I am fat and sweat like a pig in this Georgia heat.

I need something that will not allow my sweat to get through but I can take off in the winter to clean well and put back on in the spring?

What was the overall time for delivery and price.

Thanks in advance,

Travis

The rear seat portion that you sit on is reasonably easy to install ,they slip on and attach themselves together with velcro.The rear seat portion that your back rests against can be difficult .Do a search there is some posts on the rear seat removal.

Toolcrib, if you don't mind me asking, how much did the Wet Okole's run you? I think they'll be my next mod.
