    Turn the cover inside out and 'roll' it down the seat/foam. It can be REALLY snug fit. You took old covers off right?

    No I didn't remove old cover. Didn't think I was supposed too. I didn't have to on all the other seats. It's like the part where the Velcro is is way off. I'm planning on trying again tomorrow and I'll take a pic. I was just too pissed off and it was getting cold this evening to keep fucking with it. I'll keep it in the house tonight to keep it warm and try rolling it tomorrow.

    Im not 100% familiar with these, but i redid my interior last year with OEM covers and had to remove the old covers, cut the metal rings that connect the covers to the wood sticks at the creases in tge seats, then when installing the new covers i used tiny zip ties to connect the loops in the seat covers back to the wood sticks in the foam. If yours velcros at the seams they sound different than the OEM covers. Wish I could help more. But took me 2 days and didnt come out that good using the metal rings on first seat... using zip ties... 20 minutes per seat and came out PERFECT!

    I removed my seats from the truck. Made it easier to roll down.

    Well how did it go? I have these and had no problem at all. Took about 4 hours to do DCSB. Only advice I have is put them in the dryer one at a time to heat up and stretch a little. Will make the job go easier. Mine fit like a glove.

    Fold flat eh? Been there, gave up and took it to an upholstery shop. They had to remove most of the outside plastic and put the cover underneath it. The driver seat took one of them about 10 minutes. I removed the seats for them.

    Best 50 bucks I ever spent.

    Are you sure you got the cover for the fold flat?
    Also is there a plastic tray on the back of the seat that you need to remove first?

    You don't have to take the old seat covers off they should go right over make sure you use the right cover for the driver and passenger there numbered with the instructions as well. I just kept pulling from the bottom. Follow the instructions they are helpful and don't pull on the parts that don't have stichting
