So I'm going to order some Coverking neoprene seat covers. I'm trying to figure out for sure if I have airbags in my JK though. It's a 2007, the dealership listed it as having them, and underneath my seats there are some electrical wires running up into the seats, on the under edge of the seat near the console. These things make me think I do have seat airbags, but when trolling the forums I saw someone else had said their seats had a patch of some sort sewn onto the upper side of the backrest, specifying that the Jeep was equipped with side airbags. I don't have those patches. There is a label sewn near the shoulder that says "YES equipment."

I just want to be sure before I drop $200 for seat covers. BTW, amazon has these Coverking seat covers for $200 for BOTH the front and rear seats. At least for the 2dr like I have. A pretty good deal for what I gather are quality seat covers.

While we're on the topic, would anyone like to share their opinions of these Coverkings? What's the result of them getting rained on?

My box literally said coverking on it. I was a bit put out as I wanted Smittybuilt. They are the same. Call, maybe they have ? yellow? (it takes all kinds)

Edit Please direguard my yellow comment. I happened to look at my icon showing my canoe.

Seeing as how you do some canoeing, how has the neoprene stood up to water? I want to get my Jeep bedlined at some point in the near future, and my logic was that with the wet suit seat covers and the bed liner (and maybe a marine stereo head), I'd have a basically waterproof jeep.

Neoprene fades fast in direct sunlight. The nylon skin likes to separate at the sewn seams but it holds up. It reminds me of jeans. the older and more faded my farmer john becomes the more I like it. Shows time on the rivers. Same for seat covers I guess. sun faded means more topless time.

that would be sweet, except they're not for the JK and don't come in yellow.

I paid a little more and purchased Marathon seat covers and could not be happier!
Time will tell on the ware factor tho?

how do the marathon's material hold up to water? do they keep the factory seat dry?
