For those with Iggee synthetic leather seat covers

I searched and read every thread there is on this site about these seat covers, and now some time has passed since those threads were created.

How are your seat covers holding up? I'm seriously considering getting these seat covers. I don't know if I'm posting this in the proper forum, but I've seen some threads on this topic posted in here, in MY forums, and in the interior forum, but figured it would get good exposure here in GD.

I was stuck for the longest time on Wet Okole, but bang for the buck, versitility, ease of install, and appearance wise, I can't find many negatives about these covers, and I've read a lot of reviews.

Any input is appreciated.

This is what they're selling for on ebay:

I was just speaking with them on the phone, and I didn't realize you can also get the same covers but with 100% synthetic leather, including the sides and the back, instead of the stretchy fabric on the sides and back. You also lose the map flaps in the back of the front seats, because the stretchy fabric goes over top of the existing rear pockets. The entire set is $358, so for roughly $100 more, you get 100% synthetic, and they retain the custom map/storage flaps in the back of the two front seats. I'm not sure if it's worth the extrar hundred when I don't actually use those flaps anyway.

Yeah I hardly use those storage flaps in the backseat. Do they look much different or is the addition of the pockets the only real benefit? If they fit better or just looked better I would do it but for just adding the pockets its not worth it.

I just had my seats professionaly cleaned, and I'd like to keep them looking the way thy do now. These seats are a major PIA, and every time I get them cleaned it's wear and tear on the fabric. Synthetic leather would be so much easier for everyday life, especially with kids and a dog.

It's not only for the flaps, but you also get the synthetic leather as opposed to the stretchy material. Here are some pics from a member of this board who has the covers with the stretchy material. They look fine to me. As for a fitment difference between the two? I dunno, but I can't see it making a difference :








...and there are some pics in this thread as well. I don't have the integrated seatbelt with my front seats, so that zipper/velcro strip won't be an issue:

We have the same issue, the water marks on the seats are rediculous. My detail guy said Fords are terrible about showing every little stain on the seat and if you put a cold drink on it just the condensation causes a stain. I cant get over how good those seat covers look for the money. Thanks for finding this. The stretchy backs dont look bad at all, looks like this may be where I spend that lil stimulous check I get July

Yeah, my detail guy said the same thing. I think it's common knowledge that these cloth F150 seats are bad news.
Iggee told me they take 5 days to make from the time of your order, so roughly 2 weeks by the time you actually receive them with shipping time. You have to make sure you're detailed in your description when making your order on color, seat types (integrated seat belt, 60/40 bench with/without armrest, front captains, console, etc etc).

I just ordered the entire set about 10 minutes ago. I hope I'm happy, but after all the Googling I've done and pictures I've seen from all different types of car/truck forums, I think everything will be good.

I would be very interesting in knowing more after you get them in.

Good deal, I cant believe how well they fit from those pictures. Make sure to post up a review/install thread once you get them

Will do. From what I've researched, I'll have to take the back part of the back seat off to really get that custom install look. How tough is it to remove the back seat? Is it just a matter of unbolting the seatbelt and pulling some clips from behind on each side of the backrest? I'll have to figure that part out yet, but after looking under the front seats, I should have plenty of room to fit my paws under there to secure the straps.
