    You're all making yourself worry over nothing... just be patient, let inventory catch up after the holiday season and your covers will arrive soon. No one has been a victim of bait and switch, no one has had an order taken without a product being delivered and from all I've read any problems with the covers has had a positive resolution. Even if you're not happy in the end and want to move on to Katzkin you will have no problem flipping the covers on the used market.

    I've had my dark grey in my truck for almost a year and 23k miles. They look exactly like they did when I installed them and show zero wear. I cannot tell the difference between the leather insert and PVC bolsters. Everyone, including the servicing dealer, thinks it is a full on leather kit. As well, the heated seat kit I installed works great thru the clazzios.

    Can I ask what the install will be? I'm down in Lehi, but a drive up to Layton isn't too crazy.

    Are there any computer pro's out there who can change this title to say sport instead of off road? This is exactly what I want on my headrest but can't find it online that reads sport in these colors. Didn't know where else to post this.
    Thanks

    Those are just vinyl, no leather.

    I'm not sure, waiting for mine to come in. You said "backside" but you are looking under seat?

    Reach under bottom of back side of front seat. Find clips on straps that connect up to seat frame. Similar to straps and hooks on regular seat covers.

    That looks good but ended up going with this one.

    Use a hair dryer and heat up the covers to make them stretch easier. Will help for the whole process.

    Is there any unbolting/screwing necessary throughout the installation process?

    The only thing I remember unbolting is the rear seat center seatbelt bolt.

    The perforated leather inserts will breathe as the pvc will not.
