So, I finally finished my seats. They look pretty good now, but they'll look better one they tighten up with heat.
On my driver's seat, when I took the original covers off, the outside bolster foam was pretty much deteriorated. I didn't have the time, or want to, to order one, so I used what I had around the house...a memory foam pillow! I cut it up and used it on my bolsters and added some on my bottom and my back parts of the seat. You can tell that leather is a little tighter than the passenger's, but damn it feels good!
Yes, I know I need to clean them already, but here's 2 pics from today
Overall, I'm happy with the kit. It was actually really straight forward as far as taking the originals off and putting these on. The biggest part is making sure you remember how the edges of the covers fit on the seat pan. Other than that, it was easy!

Thanks! They turned out better than I expected for sure! I still need to do the inserts on the door panels. I'd love to find a darker carpet for mine. Maybe that'll be my next project!

I absolutely love them! I did have some rubbing issues in reverse because of the front fender liners, but I cut them and all is good up front. When I'm in full flex in the rear, the tires do rub the cladding, but I haven't done any cutting on those yet. I didn't chop my body mounts and I do not rub them. I have a little over 15K miles on them and they still look pretty new. I've been in/on all types of terrain with them and have only been stuck once...in soupy mud.
I'd recommend them to anyone looking for an all terrain, trail riding, and occasional off roading tire.

I put the same fox 2.0's on my 2008.
Question, how many threads do you have showing?
I didn't want to over compress the rubber.
