Wet Okole pics requested

I tend to drive with my back seat down, so having seat covers isn't really necessary...but I can't imagine the look of having seat covers on the front only on those rare occasions that I have the seats up.

So, one thing I haven't seen are how the rear seat cover go on and what do they look like from the boot (seats up and down if possible)?

Thanks!

Have you checked the website? They have a number of good shots there.

All their pictures of MINI seat covers are from the front...that's why I asked here.

I'll see if I can do pics this weekend, but with the holiday it'll be a bit busy. They cover the entire back cushion 100% in slip cover fashion you pull them on from the top. The seat bottom is a huge piece. You take the seat bottom out (simple) and put it on. It covers the sides as well and had 8-10 straps hidden underneath to keep everything taught and in place. The backs are plain black nylon over the neoprene and don't look much like seat covers. There are holes for the seat release lever of course.

Thanks...to be honest though I was looking for Wet Okole pics. I really handset considered these. In fact, I hadn't even heard of them. How do they compare to the Okoles? With experience with both I realize this is a hard one to answer...

colinmini,
any pics of the front? What do you think of them?
I have been considering the Moss covers because they are less money.
Thanks

One thing with Wet Okoles is you can get custom, piping etc. I got custom piping on the headrests which are normally solid, and got them to put air bag holes on both sides of the front seat ones on my new set so I can swap them left for right to even out sun exposure. ( I commute alone with top down alot )

The back seat covers for the cabrio are likley different than the tin-top (what I have...) so I guess I need to be more specific...

1) Okoles
2) from the backside...or top with the back seats folded down if you prefer
3) hardtop.

Thanks!

Post number 6 has pics that would be interchangable with the Okoles.

Not sure what else you are wanting?

But they aren't Okoles, so I how would I have known that?

That said, I'm glad to hear that because those are pretty clean in the back.

Ross, if you're going to order some, let me know before and maybe we can split the shipping costs.

Great idea...I'll let you know. Probably won't be until late summer at best before I get around to it.

just to satisfy my paranoia, I'm still hoping someone with genuine Okoles can post pictures of the back side of the rear seat.

Sorry for the blurred pic...I took several other pics, but they didn't come out very well & if I weren't dealing with the onset of a migraine, I'd go back outside & re-take the pics...
