    I received mine yesterday (black/char, no piping, front seats only). Ordered the Friday after the GB started. Only had enough daylight to get the driver side put in this evening.

    A few notes:

    I took out the seat to install. Simple with a 14mm socket. I can't imagine doing it with the seats in place-no way my hands would fit in well enough to pop the straps through. YMMV.

    I disconnected the negative side of the battery before taking out the seat. No problem with the SRS airbag. On my truck (2013) you have to cut the tape that holds the wires to the bottom of the seat- just FYI.

    Seats look good. I expected a snugger fit, but I imagine they'll mold with time. Definitely notice a higher ride when driving. I think I'm going to do the rear view mirror mod if I can get a hold of a bracket.

    I'll post pics once the full install is done (crossing my fingers for no rain tomorrow). Overall I'm very happy- with the amount of time I spend in waders in my truck, it's worth it!

    The bottom velcro should attach to a line of velcro on the inside bottom of the back of the top cover.

    I just checked my email and I guess mine shipped out today. That was quick, I think I ordered on almost the last day and got graphics. Next week I know what I'll be doing...seat covers and a light bar!!!

    Got them (front and rears - charcoal with light grey piping) yesterday. Only charged $40. for customs and Cdn taxes!

    Took about 3 hours to install (left the seats in the vehicle to do it). I did the rears first - it is easier and gives you a feel for how everything goes together.

    Fit is like a glove.

    I am really pleased with the purchase and deal.

    Thank You.

    Installed mine today. Took me a little under an hour. I attempted to do it with the seats in but fvck that. It is 4- 14mm bolts and its a breeze from there. sorry for the crap cell phone pics.

    I am going to tighten up the bottoms and I will be good to go.

    Bone stock. For now.
    Got mine in today! Got me installed after a trip to the horse races. I'll post installed pics tomorrow. So far, I am VERY pleased with my purchase. They add noticeable cushion , and the lumbar support is great.

    Knew I should have went ahead and gotten the lumbar support... Haha Not sure if it would be very compatible with heaters though...

    I'll bet you could order it pretty cheap, or even put one in yourself. It's just velcro'd in.

    Thanks to Ana at Wet Okole for helping with logo change after initial order. Big thanks to the OP for organizing the group buy. Mine were supposed to be here this Tues, got an email yesterday saying they had been delivered. I didn't even know Fedex ran on Sat. Went to the front door and there they were! Now if I only had a 2nd gen truck to put them in...'14 on order, no build date yet as of yesterday. The wait is driving me nuts.
