Source For Seat Covers

I just started researching seat covers for the FX4. Looking for something that will not wear into the original seat fabric after a couple of years. Quite honestly I'm more interested in function than looks. I have the low back bench with inegtral seat belts.

I looked at the Okole's, beautiful covers but a little pricey at this point.

Does anyone know any other sources at reasonable prices?

Thanks....John

Try these and see if they are more in line with what you are looking for. http://www.covercraft.com/seatsavers®.htm
I have a set in my SCrew and I really like them. They come off and go one very easy, and I love that they can go in the washer at home for a cleanup.

Thanks to all who responded.

I checked out Tex's site (seatcovers.net) and like what they had. Called them and purchased a set that was not pictured on the site yet. I think it was called Coral. I did a little haggling and got the head rest covers for $15 vs the listed $25. They also will add some pockets to the back and throw in a matching steering wheel cover. The Valentines discount was still going also. That put the cost of the covers themselves at $129 - 10%.

They said they will make them up and they should be here in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to it.

John

John the first advice will be to take the side cover off the seat...the lumbar **** just pulls straight off the remove the 4 screws and work it around the recliner lever...after that just tie everything together but don't use knots,you do want to remove them later to clean..just remember your Boy Scout days and use a half hitch that will come apart when you pull on the lazy end
