The top velcro attachments on each side are unuseable due to the taper of the seat at the top, but it still fits tight despite that. There is tons of adjustment in the velcro attachments. And if you have side airbags you could just leave one strap unvelcroed. You have coverage front and back on the seat but not complete coverage. It is heavy fabric with a plastic vapor barrier under the 'seat' part. Pouches are cool and you have attachment points at seat back as well as in front of the seat between your legs and the sides near the seat adjustment knobs. I wish I could post pictures to do it justice. Like I said, not a perfect fit but pretty close and I will fiddle with fit more tomorrow. I would definately recommend and I will be getting one more for the passsenger seat.
Any pics yet? I am getting that itch. Also was the way I understand the add is 100 per seat? The fronts do not come in a set?

Kinda bummed cuz I came up with this exact idea a few years ago for my TJ. I make quite a bit of tactical gear, and this was just a no brainer for me. I suppose it was just a matter of time before someone else had an epiphany. Just a sorta mini rant. They look good though!

Sorry guys, I am computer stupid and have no way to post pictures, but believe me despite it not being a absolutely perfect fit it works and fits well and is definately worth the price. I am going to have my wife cut and restitch the top velcro straps on either side and it will be perfect. The olive green is great and the fabric is thick. It is made in China though, but what isn't.

You only get one for the price. I bought just one to confirm fit. I am now going to order another. And I just put it right over my neoprene covers.
