Spend the extra money on the Wet Okles, you will thank me later. Take a look in this forum and on some of the others. From what I have read, they are a better fit (which I think is something you are looking for), they look much better.

Remember that you get what you pay for.

I sat in RescueX's JK during the JK-Forum Midwest Meet-up at Disney. He has the Wet Okoles. Very, very nice. For me, they have a bit more padding in the center than on the bolsters, making the bucket seat a little less bucket. Which is much more comfortable (for my big butt, anyway!). So, that's what I plan to order in the next few days.

Also, search around the forum. IIRC, you'll find complaints about the fit of the Seat Glovers.

X2 on the leather:



I had leather in my TJ and really enjoyed it. As mentioned above, the leather got dirty and wet and sat out in the sun with the top off. The leather held up very well. The cost difference between a full set of Wet Okoles and leather is not as much as you might think. Plus, you use the seats every time you are in the Jeep!

I'm looking for an easy on and off set.

I take my 2 German Shepherds (Shedders) and need covers that I can take off and wash.

A thin, waterproof nylon would work, not very concerned about the fit, as long as they stay in place.

Any suggestions?????

John
