Do the wrinkles go away from packaging eventually?

I'm really considering these. I've read nothing but great reviews on quality and great customer service.

Man I just wish they were a bit less expensive. But my finger is on the trigger!

Default Trek Armor and Rain/Mud?

I'm in the market for seat covers. Here is my Must list. So please any input on what is the best for my needs.

1. (Rain) I go topless/Doorless from May to November. They must be Waterproof or At least be able to take a quick summer downpour and Dry out quickly while still protecting the Stock fabric

2.(Mud) When I get mud on the covers I want to be able to hose them down and Keep Rolling. I don't want to take the covers off. Basically I'm lazy. I'm not even going to deny that.

3. (Mold resistant) When I get them wet I don't want mold growing on them or have a bad smell to them.

4.(Quality/Durable) I want them to last. I'd rather have good set for 6 years than having to buy 2 sets every 3 years. I'd rather spend the money upfront and be done with it. I don't know if that goes into the lazy aspect if it does oh well I want Quality.

Thanks for all the Help

I installed a set of Bartact a few days ago . Much cheaper than leather which is what these covered factory cracked leather trimmed . This may also answer some more questions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ldaa...ature=youtu.be

I'm always OK with spending on quality...which is what the Bartact is.

Just a bit high for slip over covers.

I have had Wet Okole seat covers since I bought my jeep in 2008. They have faded, but I never used the uv protectant. They still look good, no rips on warn places. I'd get another set.
