    I have the windows tinted darker than factory so I don't think it will be much of a problem.

    I bought them locally from a distributor in the island. I did not remove the front seats. I installed it like in the video I posted and had no issues, just take your time and don't rush it. Folding it like he did for the front seats works great, I folded it like that, tilted the seat back and moved the seat forward then sat on the rear seats and installed it from behind the seat and moved the seat position as necessary.

    For the bottom part, I placed it on the seat then tighten it down a bit, then took care of the edges using the butter knife type tool included and tighten the cord. Then have someone sit in the seat while you tighten the middle belts more, make sure they go over the wiring etc that there is under the seat so it dosen't crush or unplug anything as you tighten it down and don't tighten super tight as the plastic buckle can break... Ask me how I know lol... After a few weeks I tighten it a bit more now that it had time to breath and stretch a bit.

    Cool, the only thing I did not do was the center console lid, I will give it a second shot again in a couple of weeks.

    If you manage to get it on, let me know how you did it.

    If you think black leather is going to hide dirt or wear, you're going to be very disappointed. Black anything shows WAY more than any other color. I had one black leather car, and I refuse to EVER do that again. If you're at all OCD about keeping your car clean, black leather and interior will make you go crazy.

    Bottom line, I can not suggest strongly enough to choose gray over black. I have gray Roadwire leather in my 2009:

    Well mine is on! I'm not sure I'm leaving it on though. I took the complete lid off, then took the latch off. Then put the cover on folded it in duck taped it in a couple places to hold it. Then put the latch back on running the stews thru the material. Then put the lid back on the hinge. Then the inside liner, using that tool they give you to tuck it in as I screwed the liner back in.
    BUT now the latch barely catches, but it does. My center console is already black so if it gives me any grief it's coming back off. If they would give you another inch of material all the way around it would work great! But I absolutely love the seat covers and the way they fit!

    The pic. shows a wave in the back seat but after it got into the upper 70's here in the Midwest I cinched them up and took care of that. The warmer it is the easier it is to put these on!

    can someone post picture with the back seat folded down. I carry my dogs and am curious how they made use of the plastic trey. If it slips over it then thats a no go for me, dogs claws will reek havoc

    They go over it. But that was something I didn't like and before I installed mine I took to plastic off to see how it attaches, but went ahead and put them on over for now. But I'm going to take them to an upholstery shop and have them cut two holes on each side and sew around each hole so the plastic could be put back on top.
