Default spray in bedliner, water resistant seating

I've been focused mainly on the exterior of my Jeep but I'm turning my attention to the interior. After all that's what we see day in and day out. I'm looking to RhinoLine the interior Tub but i'm also looking to replace seats with more comfortable bucket seats. I would like them to be water repellent (proof, if I can get them) and I dont like dealing with seat covers. Basically, if it rains and the top is down, I dont want it to matter either way. Just wipe my seat down and go. I like the 4 bucket seat configuration. What are my options and should I have my seat layout set up and installed before I do the spray in liner or should they coincide?

I have Marathon Seat Covers and they have /had great reviews. However, I have not been impressed. They hold up very well, but I don't think the fit is great. There are several exposed areas throughout my seats.

I Line-X'ed my tub and it is excellent with seat covers. When my kids trash the back seats, I grab a hose and spray away.

Check out Trek Armor. Only problem I've read about is they don't work with side airbags.

I use Trek Armour seat covers. Awesome material, great fit(looks factory). Bit of a challenge to get on and perfect(because of the tight fit and no stretch fabric), took a few weeks to get them, and they are not cheap. A few days after you put them on you will think how did you ever not have them on before this.

Get a vinyl seat cover. They will hold up to the elements a lot better and are comparably priced with neoprene and the canvas ones.

No way. It's a simulated leather. Coverking or iggee are the only ones I know of.

You should check out the Iggee covers. Waterproof, look, and fit superbly awesome.
