Wet okole is the best, they're expensive though. They're made from neoprene (wet suit material) and I think they're $270 per set on the cheap end, thats 1 set for the front, 1 set for the rear, 1 set for 3rd row (if applicable). My old roommate bought some for his F-150 for hunting & he loves them. The fit looks stock.
You can also get some neoprene covers from coverking.com, they're not quite as high quality but I hear their pretty good. I bought some fabric ones from them for my ex's '96 runner a while back and they fit almost like stock as well. Can't testify to how they're holding up though...

Great info, thanks. The Okole covers are awesome, but I doubt I'll be spending that kind of money. I want some cheaper, but that are water proof. Not sure anything exists that is cheaper, but I'll keep looking for now. If I could find some cheap canvas style covers, I might even could treat them w/ scotch guard and get the protection I need.
Anybody have some cheap fabric or canvas covers that they like??

I would check out the ballistic nylon from coverking. They are cheap, but cheaper than the Okole covers. After all of my research, these are what I will be going with. I have tried to stain, rip and puncture (within reason) the samples they sent me, and didnt succeed with any of it.
I do not like the rough feel of seat covers. I simply went to TJ Maxx and picked up some matching towels (tan in my case). They work great, look a bit ghetto (according to my GF), and are easy to clean.
Since my social friends are all mountain bikers, they don't even notice. My GF has given up trying to convince me they look ghetto. I think Lacoste and Calvin Klein bath towels are quite nice and fancy...and soft.:lol:

Photos!??!
Anybody have photos of the Wet Okole seat covers they have installed? I want to get some because I fish quite often w/waders with my rig. I also think it would be nice to have a color coded look.
However, do people have issues with the neoprene grabbing the leg hair and pulling it out? Does the neoprene get HOT?
Thanks!!
