WET OKOLE GROUP BUY SEPT 27-2011 THRU OCT 9-2011

Id love to get in on one of these Wet Okole group buys if/when the forum does one again. These seat covers look great.

 

.
W/O put a hold on shipping mine until last Monday because I was out of town. Mine should be here this weekend or next Monday.

The instructional pics & tips are great to have in advance ...

Finally!!!!!!!! Ill prolly get as far as the back seats today cuz i just got off work but these came out sooo badass!!!

 

I was wondering when you were going to get them!

Can't wait to see them installed!

Fink

 

Long overdue.

 

And now the final product!!! Ill get more pics soon

 

DANG! lookin good guys!!

 

how hard were the back seat covers to install?

 

Very easy compared to the fronts.

The hardest part was getting the back seam for the 60 bench to line up straight. It was a tight fit but with some negotiating, it came together perfectly.

I have just one problem with my back seat covers: it appears that Wet Okole forgot to cut a slit in the top seam for the 60 seat back release strap to come through... Obviously I only realized this once the cover was on the seat and the seat was locked back in an upright position, i.e. locked without a way to be unlocked...

I was such in a hurry to put the new covers on the seats that I didn't notice that missing detail...

I have already tried to reach the strap through the hole for the headrest post closest to the passenger side of the car, but my fingers are not long enough. I might try with some sort of hook, but I don't want to rip the seat or the covers. If nothing else, since I will eventually need to put a slit in the seam anyway, I might try to work with a seam ripper and open up the seam where the strap should have come out in the first place...

 

Be sure you check really hard for the seat release slot - I thought mine was missing too but I eventually found it. Those slots are just sewn extremely tight.

*running downstairs to check in the truck*

Nope... I can clearly see the stitches all the way from the corner of the seat to the headrest post... Got my hopes up for a second there!

 

This is going to sound stupid but did you try running your finger firmly all the way down the seam? Mine looked solid but when I started pushing down with my finger all along the seam, I finally found the break.

If you don't find it, contact Wet Okole about it and see what they suggest.

Fink

 

No, it doesn't sound too stupid, it's what I did! I can feel the stitches underneath my fingertip, going from one side of the seam to the other. I will try to contact them, see what they have to say...

 

Let us know what they say!

Fink

 

Wet Okoles for Christmas! Id love to get in on another group buy for these. Let me know if anyone is going to re-start this groupbuy!

 

Well,, mine shipped today. Light grey with charcoal full piping. Either it will look like crap or not. At $600+ I will be living with them for a real long time. Horrible feeling. LOL.

 

Lets get another group buy going..... Iwant to buy myself a xmass gift.
