seat covers, whats the best brand out there?

I love my truck from the bed liner down to the vaule stems, but i hate the new cloth interior of my 2005 f150. What would you guys suggest, and what is everyone using? I would like to stay under $500 for the front buckets and the cab and half, but i guess you get what you pay for also. help me please

Check my gallery. I went with fake leather covers.

Just got back from the dealer and a few of the techs were commenting on them. They figured I went in and had some custom work done on the upholstery.

Depending on what your looking for. Katzkin, and Classic Soft trim do really nice replacement, leather covers. I had CST leather put in my 97. It actually matched the trim better than the stock Lariat leather. I got tan with match tan suede in teh cnters.

I put on a set of Wet Okole's a few months ago. Look great! Fit tight!. Just a smell of neopren for a while.

Wet Okloes are definitely nice, and hold up well. I have a set on my Nissan Hardbody, that are over ten years old, are still functional. I bought these direct, before anyone else was selling them. They actually tried to talk me out of red and grey, being they would fade in a couple of years.

So I have a 2009 and I was thinking about doing the same thing only I concerned that the cover would prevent the seat airbags from deploying in an accident. Anybody know if this would happen

if you are going with the wet okole brand, their site has a part where they ask if you have seat air bags. i assume the covers are made differently since they are asking. but that is something that you would have to verify through the company you are purchasing from.
