I am in the market for some seat covers for the front seats and the folding rear seat. Whats the best cover for the money. What does everyone have. thanks

I'm looking for some too, but it seems they're either really expensive or cheap. I checked out two sets at Pep Boys for $29.99 each; one of them was a wetsuit material, waterproof and durable. The grey/black one looked terrible because the grey was more of a grey/brown/pearl color. Black and Red are just too flashy for my subtle tastes. The other one at Pep Boys had an actual Jeep logo but was obviously cheaply made (thin fabric, weak elastic, looked like a big nightcap). Neither of these seat covers looked like they would fit or cover well.
I've also looked at Wet Okole seat covers, which sound like much more of a snug fit for 5x the prices @ Pep Boys. Marathon Seat Covers also look promising. I haven't decided on which to buy yet so I'll sit in on this thread and get some other ideas if anyone has them. I think I'm on the verge of just removing the upholstery altogether and using the pattern for new fabric. Has anyone else had luck with another brand?

I say be a guido and get a pair of "ed hardy" seat covers from auto zone just kidding.... Well I don't have any seat covers on my XJ right now because the interior is perfect and i keep it well maintained so i don't see a reason to have them but when I owned my 1993 Wrongler YJ, I ordered some Bestop HEAVY DUTY canvas type material seat covers from JCwhitney. they were awesome, I wish i wasn't an idiot after the jeep was totaled because I forgot to take them with me when i was at the wrecker's. =/

I'm very **** about the way my Jeep looks. I spent at least 5 years looking for suitable seat covers for my XJ (and more recently my Dodge). I have also spent a small fortune buying the cheap off-the-shelf stuff at $25+ per seat only to have it fade, split or generally disentegrate in a few months. For what I've spent on the cheap stuff I should have just got these 7 years ago. I've tried the stuff with what looks like panty-hose in the back, and the "canvas" type stuff. The fake vinyl. I've tried T-shirts. I'm done messing around with crap, finally caved in & bought the Wet Okole front covers and it's been one of the best mods so far.

Even tho I orderd the wrong color (Wine instead of ... whatever), it's okay. The first time I sat in the driver seat it felt like I had new seats in the XJ. Easy to clean, cushy, durable, perfect fit & look great. They're pricey, but definitely worth it in my book.





I know they look "pinkish" but it's bright sunlight. The official color is "wine" . They came with headrest covers but I took them off for the contrast effect. Added piping was an extra cost, but you don't have to get that.

Those do look great, thanks for posting those pics. Wet Okole looks like the next best thing from reupholstering. Color looks great against that tan, too.

Other than being pink (hehe, I know, 'wine'. Cameras never do color justice), those look awesome. The fit looks awesome.

Cory, depending on price of course, Stationwagon's covers look like a good way to go.

Stationwagon, Nice covers. Please tell us more about the box on your console.

I got some nice leather seats out of a WJ, but didnt want to fuss with putting in the WJ rears with the split folding, now I have tan/cream colored front leather and the grey cloth in the back. Anyone know where I can get a leather or letherette cover for the back?

Do really like those Wet Okole's, wish they came in a letherette material.

Another vote for Wet Okokle. They are kind of pricey but they clean up extremely easy.

CodeXJ

That's hot.

cory

with that rear seat cover can you still fold down the seat?????

I really want seat covers as well but I can't justify spending $500+ for the wet okole seat covers even though they are really nice. Anyone know of any cheaper but still decent quality seat covers?

xjbuddy

wow both seat covers look awsome. links please.
