	I bought a new Mustang GT Convertible with saddle colored leather interior back in 1996. It took 7 years before the leather started to look worn and another 1.5 years before the drivers seat ripped. I even left the top down overnight quite often and yes it got rained on sometimes. I never treated it with leather conditioner. I would not worry about the leather. It's been 9 years now and I just spent something like $650 to buy custom (tan center, black sides) new leather at autoleathers.com. A local guy is going to charge $450 to install it. A bit more than usual because Ford glues their leather to the foam, apparently unlike other mfgrs and apparently making it much harder for upholstery guy to re-upholster. But hey, to me, it isn't much to pay once every 8 or 9 years, IMHO. The question is: Do you want you and your passengers to sit on sweet leather seats for 7 years or covers? Why get leather if you are not going to enjoy it? Reminds me of an old lady I visited once when I was a kid whose furniture was all covered in clear plastic. -- Scotter "Matt" <nospam_ng@fileholder.net> wrote in message news:113tptpjca5222c@corp.supernews.com...>I have leather seats in my 2002 GT.

	If I was coming straight from the grease pit at Jiffy Lube, I sure would not want to plant my butt on my nice tan leather seats, nor plant my boots straight onto the carpeting. If I going to invest in something nice, I'd want to take care of it so it would last. I've used old blankets, sheets, seat covers, etc. To me it's worth it when I take someone out for the evening or just for a ride, for the car to look it's best. Of course, that's why I have a beatermobile.... And my great aunt had wall to wall wool carpeting in white for her condo. She didn't cover the furniture, but she did have clear plastic runners throughout the place.

	I live up in Canada and we get lots of rain. The last thing I would want to be sitting on is a sponge rubber seat cover!. LOL, they don't call them 'wet' for nothing.... I also run with the top off lots so sunburn on the seats is a big issue too. I just use the cheaper covers. The come off and wash easy and they dry out really fast.

	Wet Okoles are especially known for their colored seats fading quickly and erratically if they see much sun. Not to mention how nicely they soak up water if the water isn't wiped off soon enough. I wouldn't waste my money on them. They look nice at first but that's it. cantrelm wrote:> I am thinking about getting a set of wet okole's for my Jeep.

	Dog hair sticks nicely to the neoprene However it comes off with those rolly-sticky thingamajigs. After trashing the neoprene in a year I've switched to the cheap/washable ones.

	Yeah, and if you try to get rid of them, you still have to keep making payments anyway. Cheaper to keep 'em. billy ray proclaimed: I have always preferred red headed seat covers but have also found them to > be trouble prone and are generally high maintenance.> "Tom P" <tompeters@ev1.net> wrote in message > news:11u037lgav3oca2@corp.supernews.com...> Hello All.

	I'm looking into getting some seat covers for my new RSX to alleviate the intense heat that is generated by the black leather whenever the car is in direct sunlight for a while. I've tried using a sunshade on the windshield but that only helps so much. I've also read some posts where people say that the leather tends to crack over time, due to the UV exposure I guess. So I figure that would be another good reason to cover them. Also the leather is kind slippery (i.e. it's easy to slide around on it) and I'm guessing that is going to get worse in cold weather. So I'd like to hear from others who have gotten covers for their seats, how they dealt with the issue of the side air bag, and what kind of material they got (e.g. sheepskin, cloth, acrylic, neoprene, etc.). I know about the Wet Okole ones but I'm not sure if I like them and they are a bit pricey. I can buy regular ones and have a local upholstery place make the holes for the air bag at $25 per seat. Just trying to get some good ideas to help me decide what is the best way to go. TIA. Joe

	How have people fared with aftermarket seat covers? These would be for my 1991 Civic LX. Its driver's seat cover is a just a bit threadbare at this point. Any thoughts on those pictured at the link below? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SEAT-COVER-COVERS-HONDA-CIVIC-1985-2005-NEW_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33702QQihZ014QQitemZ330038744041QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Too many aftermarket seat covers I've tried cannot be fixed in place well, and tend to slide, bunch and pull up over time. These you show appear to be cloth all over, which is preferable to the Pennzoil ones that have just a layer of light, smooth cloth on the non-seating surfaces. Do yours have a layer of foam rubber on the underside? I find that helps tremendously in keeping the cover from shifting and bunching. Many of the seat covers I've tried are too small to fit properly over the substantial side bolsters Honda tends to put on their seats. Once you sit in the seat and press the cover into the back, either the bolsters get squeezed, or the new cover tears. My driver's seat has had a cover on almost since Day 1. The cloth (and bolsters) are unworn, but are distorted from where the too-tight seat cover has compressed the foam on the bolsters. -- TeGGeR The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/
