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

Haha! Yeah, they sent mine to Ann Harbor instead of Ann Arbor, but I still got them with no problems.

Has anyone received their half-sheet of extra material yet? I opened my seat covers and didn't have the extra material and then realized it was sent in a separate package, so I went back to my apartment's office and got what amounts to a giant roll of neoprene with about enough to make an entire wet-suit for my taco.

 

Well my covers are out for delivery.

 

post pics post delivery congrats!

 

Same here. I was going to let them air out for a few days, but with the temps forecast to go to 66 today and 63 tomorrow I may just fuck it and put them on ASAP.

 

My covers just got here.

What a surprise b/c I was expecting a shipping confirmation via email from WO. I got a huge roll of extra material to use on my doors. Looks like it's too much.

Mine should be arriving within the next couple hours.

Too bad I will not be able to put them on tonight .

 

Got mine this morning, letting them air out before installing friday. Still awaiting the half sheet I called them about that they said it should be here tomorrow as they ship it seperately.

I'm installing mine now. The smell isn't that bad and it's much easier to install with the seats out.

 

Should be here tomorrow, can hardly wait. never got a shipping conformation or email from them, but called today said shipped last week. yay

 

The fit is amazing and the install is pretty straight foward. I highly recommend that you take out your front seats. That way you can strap the bottoms tight for a better fit. The rears were a pleasure to do compared to the rears. At first, I thought WO made an error in making the rears on mine because I couldn't find the cut to fit the strap that releases your rear seats down. As I was doing my headrests, I found the slits made fir them. I thought I was going to have to make a small cut to pull them through.

Overall, it took me a little less than 2 hours to install with removing both front seats. You guys are gonna love them.

 

Delivery Date: Nov. 10

 

I installed mine last night. i'll take pictures later today. I took the bolts out of the seat but left them in the truck and it worked out well. Took me about 1 1/2hrs and that included vacuuming the seats and floor out. They are awesome. Thanks again cstephan for setting up the group buy.

 

I got mine and installed the seat backs last night. Tonight is the seat bottoms. So far so good and I haven't had to take the seat out.

I do have some questions / notes. Help me out if you can:

1) I ordered an extra 1/2 sheet for the doors and they sent me a HUGE roll of this. I will be putting the extra up for other TW members who want some

2) The sides of the seats (where the air bags deploy) dont stay shut. Its not velcro'd or anything and looks like a zipper that is unzipped. How are yours?

3) The part that your back touches when you sit back isnt flush to the seat. There is almost like an inch gap, but when you lean back it stretches. Is this normal?

4) The center console cover looks like a giant shower cap. Not sure how you can put the cover on it (especially around the lever to open it) without having the black elastic showing

5) The head rest covers seem to be a bit loose? The velcro goes from the back to the front, correct?

 

It took me about 35 min per side to install.

The openings for the hooks for the baby seat on the passengers side were made in the wrong direction; good thing I dont have a kid.

Biggest downfall of the product is the weak ass clips they use on the webbing. couldnt put much tension on them, but perhaps its to protect the stitching.

Personally I wouldnt bother taking the seats out. It was not that hard to install, if you can hug your seat you can install these.


3) Mine do the same thing, I assume this gets a little better.
4) As for the center console cover, it took me a second to figure it out. I put the elastic toward the front and it slides behind the lever to open it, so its not visible.
5) Theres some videos on the wet okole site, one of the first ones shows how the headrests go on. I think the main thing is from the view of the outside the vehicle it should look the cleanest.

 

Hell yeh!!! Covers came in today. I was hoping to get them before daylight savings so i would have time after work. Looks like they will have to wait to saturday. Damnit! I could always call in sick......

 

Ok here they are. I installed them last night. I still have to put the extra material that I ordered on the door panels but that will be when I have some time to kill.

 

Looks awesome dude!!

Mine should be here next week!

Looks great man! Very similar to what I went with. Putting them one without taking the seats out is possible, just a bit tight trying to snap the buckles and get everything pulled tight. Awesome quality for sure!

 

Here are my pics (via my crappy iPhone camera). I still cant figure out how to get this console cover on without having the black elastic showing and going around the latch.
