    This is what you want to do. Some people remove the seat which requires you to disconnect the airbags and that plug is funky.

    I tilted them forward and had plenty of room to work with.

    The instal is a little bit of time but not at all difficult.

    I have the seat risers/spacers on the back of my drivers seat so I will probably just have to unbolt the passenger seat. Was looking under it and that seat sits low with no room to reach under.

    So the seat will stay if you unbolt it and lean it forward then? I figured I would have to tilt it to the back.

    Hey thanks to you all for posting this up with photo's etc. I'm sold, ordered a set f/r on Friday. Being in AZ i'm a little concerned over the heat. I'll probably throw a Saddle blanket cover on top of the neoprene.

    I can't comment on the heat.. have only had em for a few months and it was cold. Now that the weather broke I haven't noticed the interior hotter than normal. I will say that I can see these making your back sweat ... we shall see. At least this taco has AC. My last 2 had bad bearings/compressors so I just wound up cutting that belt off. Years without AC. So for me even if they do get hot it won't be that terrible since I have AC

    Rough Country seat covers arrived today. Going to wait for a warmer day to put them on my seats. :)

    Was a little disappointed to see the box stamped with "Made in China." Thus the cheap price I guess.

    Hey Zak, hooking up those side straps was a challenge. Not much room to feed them through the between the seat frame.

    Indeed it was.... when my son got them installed I asked him why he put the straps on the outside... he said man... it was too hard to feed them through the fabric and plastic. I just pulled that plastic back as far as possible without busting it and pushed hard on the side of the seat. My hands are about average size and I have standoffs on my seats, so that made it a bit easier. Somebody with large hands would have a rough time

    Fresh out of the box, the wrinkles have gone away after a few days. These are great!

    I just ran Paracord through all the straps, i.e. one long piece routed through each loop in a circle and pulled tight then tied a square knot. Working great

    Hey I have had these in for over a month now and I am Happy with them. A couple of notes;

    Installation was a little painful aka tight.. Upside is I had already installed Seat Jackers so that helped a lot with getting under the seats for the clips etc.. so I didn't have to unbolt anything to reach under.

    The bad was on my 2020 OR the fit around the driver power seat controls was impossible. Nothing lined up here for me and all I could do was use a blunt wrench handle to push the cover down between the plastic. A word of caution for the power seat controls. I noticed that if i pushed the cover down from rear to front of the car it was engaging the seat control and making it move forward. I can imagine this being a nightmare scenario should this engage by accident while your driving. I resolved the issue but pulling the cushion toward the back on the door side kind of twisting the whole thing counter clockwise so that the PS controls were in the clear.

    So not 100% happy with these but 90% is good enough.

    It is hard to beat these for the price in terms of design, fit, and relative ease of installation. They are cooler than leather or vinyl upholstery.
