    Sold, but going to by another

    I just loosened them all the way and then retightened them. Lot of excess strap left, but I just made pretty bows.

    How do you get the seat strap past the plastic trim on the rear of the front seats?

    I've got a 2012 DC. Do the WO's fit the rear seat sections such that the seat backs and bottoms function as designed--flip forward, etc? No one on any of the numerous WO threads that I've explored have commented on that...

    Couple more questions for you WO experienced owners---Are the map pockets as cheesy looking as they appear in pictures? Do all the sides of front seats look like they gap a lot for the side deployed air bags? Anyone get the lumbar pump option--if so how does it perform?

    If I pay this much for a set of seatcovers I want them fully functional and to look good.

    Thanks everyone!

    I absolutly love the look of them, but im really curious to find out if you guys sweat a lot when traveling? The stock TRD seats are great for breathing and keeping everything dry. I know leather doesnt breath at all. Is that how these are?

    I jog a lot and jump back in my truck after I'm done in a full sweat. I usually use a thick beach towel and wash it after about 10 uses. Wondering if these covers will help. Are these covers washable?

    Love my WO but have one complaint...love the full piping but I notice that the piping on the driverside is tearing from wear and tear. If I had to do it again I wouldn't get the full piping myself. Other then that love them.

    Some lift, some armor, some scratches..
    def washable, not by machine, but hand washing or even a good hose down outside will work great. Depending on your truck it might be a PITA to remove and replace very often. Install for the front on my '01 is a piece of cake though

    I have the same complaint. Had them only about 8 months now and the piping is becoming a little frayed and worn down.. Know of a warrantee at all?

    On Kauai the law states you must buy WO for a new Taco. At least it seems like it. Every person I talked to loves them & demanded I get some. (Still waiting for my delivery. Takes a month. Seems like a year.)

    My previous car had leather seats. I prefer the feel of the Wet Okole fabric. Much more comfortable on hot and cold days.

    I Bought a set of W/O covers during a T/W group buy. They fit great and look great! Just unbolt the seats, only 4 bolts per seat. Tilt the seats back and you can access the bottom of the seats to connect the straps without disconnecting any wires. No big deal!

    Thanks for the info about the piping. Seems to be a consistent theme.

    Got a question, since a lot of ya'll like the wet okole covers ive been thinking about getting a set for the truck. when ordering what do you have to do to get the TRD logo on the seat itself is their a place you put on the site that you want it? and is their any group buys going on anytime soon that ya'll know of? Im thinking about half pimping with red in the middle and black on the outside don't know yet. any suggestions???
