Thumbs up Wet Okole Seat Covers!!

I'm looking into buying the front and rear seat covers for my 2009 Jk Unlimited. What colors match the factory gray material the best? I see they have a light gray and a dark gray? Does anyone have these or maybe have seen them in person? Would you go with the piping and the WET OKOLE LOGO also or does it look like too much in person? Thanks for everyones help. Pictues are welcome.

Wet Okole is very proud of their covers. Smittybilt covers are the same thickness at half the price. And 4wd.com had a deal where you buy the fronts and they give you the rear for free. I love mine. Hope this helps

I love my Wet Okole covers. Not sure about the grays, but definitely go with the piping. I'm not a fan of the Wet Okele logo on the seats, but that's just me.

I have the black with yellow full piping and love the look, fit and finish. The yellow matches the detonator yellow of the jeep. I also got the heated seat option I have had heated seats in several other cars but the wet okoles make the others feel like seat warmers. The wet okoles really get hot

I have had them for about 1 year now. I have a soft top and the seats still look good. Have not faded or stretched out.

I was worried about the dark color and dirt but I could not be happier. The dirt brushes of without staining and the shop vac really pulls the dirt out. Even dog hair (2 labs) cleans up easy. Seats dont have a single hair on them. The carpet is another story.

enjoy, you cant go wrong

I have the Smittybilt ones and got them buy front get rear free. Great deal. I like them for the price. I wish they didnt have the open area for the side airbag. I have had people say that they sew them shut. Should have thought about that before I got them on...not taking them off. Not easy to get on...a nice sunny day would helpwith that. They serve their purpose for me...spilld many things on them and I have kids. So far no issues.

I've got the smittybuilt ones, and they are pretty good for the price, but I wish I had the wet okole's. They are just sort of flimsy, it seems like they used really thin neoprene and put a cheap backing material on to thicken them up. Does anybody know if the wet okole's are like that?

So is it better to order through quadratec or wet okole themselves? Anyone one with pics? I cant decide between piping or just black with the dark gray center to match stock.
