Any one using Wet Okole covers on a OBS regular cab (like and 88 or so) with a bench seat?? How do they fit and are they worth the money, do they hold up good?? Thanks

I do not have them but their products fit well.I assume that they last a long time. I have had wet suits for year and that is the same material that the covers are made of.

I bought a set for a 2001 Corvette. They fit well and certainly serve the purpose of keeping the seats nice and dry.

Cool, i know they are the same material as wet suits ive had wet suits that ive out grown b4 they have even started to show wear. I was just wondering if they did a good job and were worth the money. Thanks a lot.

About the wet okole covers, i heard from other members that they give off a slight odor. Don't know for a fact though. I would like some for myself though.

Mine do kinda have a smell, even after they are washed. They dont stink, they just have a material smell. I Love mine, but I wouldnt pay the 300 something dollars they cost. I got mine off ebay for a 100 dollars and I bought the backseat ones for 35 dollars off a buddy.

I agree, I think they look sorta funny and since when is a wetsuit a desirable look/feel for seats??? I HATE getting my wetsuit on, the material just feels nasty. IMO get some leather seatcovers and call it a day...

They have a cloth like material over the rubber, it feels like cloth, just smoother. You can see and feel the wet suit material on the inside of the covers in some places, and it does have a nasty feel lol.

Oh, didn't realize this then. Sounds like they would be nicer than factory cloth due to the durability but I'd go for leather still...

Skiing/tubing/wakeboarding on the lake at our cabin (Southern Ontario, water is COLD), and I do a little scuba every couple years, it's surprising how cold water is 60 ft down even somewhere really warm like Fiji.

I bought a set for the Corvette I had awhile ago. They fit like a glove and I never caught whiff of any smells, although i've heard they do. Those seats were the most comfortable I've ever sat in, and I'd buy another in a heartbeat. Aaaaand they looked pretty bad.
