    Just dropping a quick note for anyone else that might be interested in seat covers. I have the standard cloth seats in my 2011 and after many years of 4x4 and work, they were getting a bit gross :). I did a lot of research and ended up going with the brand FIA out of Canada. I purchased the NEO series (NEOPREME) for the front and back seats. First: Super easy to install and fit like a glove. No tools needed. Install time for front and back took me about 40 minutes and after installing, I think I could cut that down to about 20 minutes now that I have a better idea of the installation.

    The quality of the craftsmanship is outstanding, seams were reinforced as well as material was reinforced in areas that get stressed. One of the features that I really liked about this brand was they are side airbag compliant.

    It took about 30 days after placing my order, which was a bit more of wait than I had anticipated, but with COVID and supply chains, it is to be expected.

    The seats look like they are custom built aftermarket seats, not OEM seats with covers as the fit is just perfect. All of the cutouts for the various seat pieces were right where they were supposed to be (Headrest, Lumbar support, locking brackets for back seats, etc.).

    Overall, very impressed. They are a bit more than what I had hoped to spend ($575) for front and back but well worth it. The Neopreme material is really nice for protecting the interior when you are out playing and they can be washed easily.

    Hope this helps someone who might be on the fence about getting new covers.

    Thanks for your help and review

    Well that is embarrassing. My sister sent me a link to a truck she was looking at. I obviously messed that up. Thank you for letting me know

    Sorry about the delay "Not A Golfer." Here are some pics. Apologies in advance, I have to lint roll the white dog hair off. lol. Two Great Pyrenees pups tend to shed a lot of white hair.

    Thanks for posting pictures.

    I don't mind the way they look. My goal is to protect my seats from my work clothes. I don't need a perfect fit and would likely choose OE line of FIA. I do have to say they are pricey but I can make the Beaver squint on a nickel.

    Understand the pet hair thing. We have a cat.

    Thank you again for taking your valuable time to post the review and pictures
