    Sweet pics. They look pretty water resistant. Considering my location and how often I go to the beach and whatever having water resistant seat covers would be a god send.

    They look good in your truck Colin.

    Yep, They ARE water proof. When boating, I always get in my truck when Im wet, I have spilled a flower vase full of water on them, and they always just shed the water right off. In fact, when I clean them, I usually shampoo them right in the truck. :)

    Mine DO NOT fit loose at all!! I am thinking you may have not installed them correct? TN had a great thread on how to install??

    I can take more pictures if needed?

    x2, mine are super snug and have been since day 1, so snug I had to pull and tug quite a bit to even get them on, I have no bulges or wrinkles anywhere, but it took time and patience to get it right.
    Here is the TN thread, it has pics. I posted some pics of my original installation then followed the tips and got a better fit, especially after tucking the sides into the plastic edging. I also hadn't removed the front seats at first, then removed them to get a better fit.

    Note..I don't have TRD seats, but it seems like that isn't a very good fit especially for Wet Okole, hopefully you can get it figured out, I know there are some TRD's around that have them installed.

    Maybe each Wet Okole is made to fit differently, but they are fitting better, i just wish they were tighter, i just need to give them time

    Have you pulled them tight along the sides of the seat yet????
    You need to pull them under/into the plastic along the bottom side of the seats.

    They are made to fit like a custom cover nice and snug. I'd think time would only make them more loose/saggy, not tighter, but after a year mine are still snug, haven't budged a bit.

    x2 and I'm thinking maybe pull them towards the back of the seat more to get a more snug fit in the front. I had to really tug mine through the seat crack to get them nice and fitted.


    Good Luck, keep working on them. If you didn't remove the front seats to put them on I'd suggest it. I did mine without removing then went back and removed them and they fit much nicer.
