Installed Wet Okole Seat Covers

Damn, talk about a tight fit...Those things fit like a glove. I was an avid surfer umpteen years ago, and it was easier for me to get in and out of my wetsuit than to get these damn things on my seats.

But they're on and they look nice. Can anyone tell me what you guys did with the straps that go across and under the seats, like if you were facing your drivers seat about to get in your truck, the straps that come toward you under the seat. Did you just fasten it under the seat and let the seat cover hang down over the seat side, or can you take the plastic side of the seat where the recliner lever is, fasten the cover underneath the seat, then put the plastic cover back on (essentially tucking it in under that plastic cover)...

How much were those? Any pictures? I'm debating on getting something to cover the seats before I destroy them.

Thanks,

Mitch

I did like you are talking about and just let the side kind of hang there. Doesnt interfere with power seat controls or anything.

Well I wont' have to worry about the covers hanging on the side, and there won't be any pics, cause the Wet Okole covers are going back. Apparently SOMEBODY can't stand the smell or the "sweaty feeling". I'm not going to mention who that somebody is, but I'll give you a hint: she's female (and it's not my mother).

I learned a long time ago I'd rather do without certain things than listen to constant bitching and moaning (the Vietnamese should have utilized that in the Hanoi Hilton as torture). I hadn't had the covers 3 days and got so fed up I was debating on whether to throw the covers or my girlfriend out the window onto the interstate.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr.....

98screamer,

Yeah, I'm sure they can be aired out, they can't keep their odor forever. The sweaty feeling was also a complaint, so I was like, eh, what the hell, they aren't that important to me. The truck itself was a big "to do", so I guess I can live without seat covers. Before I bought my Ford I had full intentions to purchase a Beamer, and she definitely liked that idea. That frown turned upside down when I got the truck. But she's not that unhappy, she was unaware how slick the Fords look now (I've got a single cab flareside, looks like the Lightning). I think she pictured me getting a 78 with a rusted out bed or something.

Anyhoos, I haven't verbally confirmed this, but I think the "to do" is that she can't drive the truck (or feels very uncomfortable handling such a large vehicle), but she probably had plans to drive that BMW all over the towny town with her girlfriends.

So I just let it go.....Funny the **** I put up with that 10 years ago I would have been like, "What's your name, I already forgot it? Time for a new biyatch!"

It's been my experience that they do indeed make girlfriends/old ladies that will fit in the back seat. I'm not sure I would want one that was too sweaty or that needed "airing out".

A couple questions for all.

What color interior do you have and what color of Wet Okole's did you get? Do you like them?

What is the return policy for Wet Okole's?
