    I ordered a set of clazzios and installed them on my 14 dcsb the fronts were tight but i got them on. the back seats is another story, the back of the seat was to tight to get on over the plastic that covers the back of the seat. so i took off the plastic an installed the covers on an theyre decently tight without the plastic piece on. i figured i would wait a couple weeks and try again after giving them some time to stretch out enough to get the plastic back on. my question is how many had the same issue as me, and what did you do? i thought about it afterwards and i thought it would be a good idea to install the plastic pieces on over the covers so that the plastic is in contact with whatever is behind the seat an not the cover and i think it would make it look more factory then installed over top the plastic pieces anyways. anyone ever try that? i haven't done it because im worried about putting holes in the back of the covers and the holes stretching of ripping over time.

    Sorry about no pics im at work an i dnt have any of the seats yet.

    I too have Clazzio seat covers and though they were a pain to put on they are very nice! My back seat covers are on over the plastic piece. It was a struggle to fit them over but eventually I got them on. The hardest part for me was my passenger folding seat with that plastic back tray. I have a 2013 DBL cab.

    yeah all the seats were very tight an it seemed like you had to fight it for a lil while to start to stretch the material for it to fit. but i worked on teh backs for a long time and couldnt get them to fit over the plastic peices. i even put one on as far as i could and let it sit overnight so the material would have time to relax a little bit an it was still to tight.

    It in my house so right at 70. I kno they're easier to work with when its hotter so that's why I brought them inside. Although I'm sure they would have been easier at 90
