Anyone using Wet Okole covers?

I went with the standard vinyl on my new LB Clubman S. I'm thinking of installing some Wet Okoles to add some interior color. I also ordered the blue dash trim. Any suggestions on seat cover colors? I'm also thinking of Red line shift and brake boots. Do these add any leather smell to the interior. Any color suggestions?

You may really want to re think the seat covers.

Some of the side curtain air bags are actually mounted in the seats.

Supposedly, they are designed not to impede the side air bags.

That very well could be but i would make sure that there are no straps or any thing else in the way of the air bag.

Your insurance company may have something to say about otherwise.

Just checked out their site. Nice to see that they actually test their covers via airbag deployment. They have some vids on their site if anyone wants to see.
