I think mine were $99 for the set for the 60/40 bench.  I didn't buy them, they came with the truck.  CTENG, you may want to get some wetsuit soap stuff to clean those, regular soap doesn't work so good, it kinda messes with the color

meh

I'm not all that impressed with them.  I'd never spend that much on seat covers, especially not for a trail rig. 

They hold up fairly well I guess, but mine sure as heck don't look pretty.  They're really faded, and they tear pretty easily.  I'm sure they'll be alright on a DD though.

They do work wonders if you're ever getitng into the car wet, thats for sure.  They dry quickly, and don't let the moisture get into the seats :thumbs:

No problem :thumbs:  the isntructions on the tag on mine says to throw them in the wash, but it faded them out.  I  tried the wetsuit soap, and it worked a lot better.  I talked to the company about it, but I don't know if they ever changed the tags :dunno:

Did you use the wetsuit soap by hand in the tub or something?  Or with them in the washing machine?

first time I did it by hand, 2nd time I got the wash machine stuff.  :thumbs: 

since I've owned the truck, I've washed them 3 times, the first was following instructions with normal soap in the washer, it faded them out, and didn't even get them all that clean.  2nd time, I had some spots i wanted to get rid of, so I soaked them, in the tub, in warm water, with the soap, and then rubbed the soap in directly where the spots were.  Turned out much better than using the washer.  third time, I got wash machine safe wetsuit soap, and washed them in there, didn't fade them, cleaned them better than the first time in the wash, but soaking and handwashing was by far the best :thumbs: 

oh yeah, they dry best in indirect sunlight out side :thumbs:
