2014 Wet Okole GB - ended

Up

 

Ordered mine. Standard black edges with light grey center, both rows. I was torn between charcoal and light grey, but light grey matches my current seat colors perfectly.

 

What do these things feel like in the winter? Do they get cold?

 

not if you have a seat heater.

truthfully i cannot imagine these conduct/contract more/less heat than stock.

 

Trying to figure out if I need seat heaters. I love my current seats as they feel great year round. I hate leather because of the hot/cold in the summer/winter. I doubt I need them, but curious if others feel like they do. I live in Arkansas, so it's not overly cold here.

 

couldnt hurt to ask when you call.

 

You need them when its been -30c for the last 2 month.

 

Old saying goes "better to be lookin at 'em then for 'em". They will be nice to have occasionally for a couple months but you don't need 'em... unless your my wife.

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FQQ4WWA $49 seat heater kit ordered mine yesterday. (Think it might be cheaper for those of you in the states because of shipping.)

 

I live near the Wet Okole store here in Orange County, Ca so I braved the 80 degree weather here in So Cal to check the store out and see my color choices and sit in one of the sample seats in their showroom. They have a set of Taco seats in the showroom with covers on them. David was helpful and my color choices of charcoal over black looked just like the color chart on their website. All in all a professional operation staffed by friendly employees.

David explained that they do group buys only during the slow seasons of February and September. In season they do 250 covers per day and the wait is much longer. We are definitely getting preferred service and great pricing from a company that otherwise doesn't really need the incremental business.

I sat on the covered taco seats in the showroom and was impressed with feel, fit and finish. The covers really are made of light "wet suit" material and feel durable. He said they are neither hotter in summer or warmer in winter than stock seats. He said he preferred the charcoal color over light grey as it tends to get dirty faster. He did say the seats clean up real well and are definitely water proof.

All in all I call the visit a 9/10 and that's because I haven't yet seen my finished seats. Kudos to Bennett for great pricing and even better timing of the order!

 

week one down guys!! thanks to all the participants.

ocwaterguy sounds like a great experience!!

 

Aside from the whole shipping price delaying my order, I've also been going back and fourth on ordering for the rear jump seats. Upon looking over this pic I think I'm going to just bite the bullet and get them. The left sued looks good, the right side looks lose maybe because they aren't installed all the way. As long the outcome looks like the left seat I'll be happy. http://www.wetokole.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=ZOOM&Store_Code=ASCWOH&Product_Code=Z-0925-12-11-11p-061009

 

I wonder if dog hair comes off easily? Anyone?

 

with one of those sticky rolling things you should be fine. I havnt had crazy amounts of hair, but when I had one of my uncles dog, that sheds really bad, clean up wasn't bad at all

 

Ordered !!!
Two front rows, one hand gun pocket and shipping was 428.40
Getting solid charcoal for my Taco and solid tan for the wife's Rav 4
Thanks for all your efforts.

 

Ordered yesterday! No problems. Ana was very helpful. Got both rows, standard black with charcoal center, lumbar on both front and gun pocket on driver. I got my invoice via email by that afternoon. Can not wait to get them installed.

 

Anyone ordering from Hawaii got a lead time estimate on their seat covers?

 

I've been told as has everybody else that it would be 3-4 weeks to get them made.

 

I ordered last week Tuesday. Still did not receive a confirmation email. But I did see that they charged my credit card. It appears that Hawaii orders have a different set of guidelines from Wet Okole.

 

I called back and they actually got my email address wrong. Erika sent me the invoice right away, however she did not state any lead time. I was hoping someone else got the information so that I don't have to call back, lol. You should call back to see what's up.
