Front seat iggee seat covers

[mikeacs]

Couldn't stand my ripped front seats any longer, and although new leather was very tempting, it just didn't make sense to me on my truck with 235k. especially since I've been truck shopping for weeks. (Nothing really measures up to a cruiser but another cruiser)...So in the meantime, I figured I would at least cover the seats with something...I decided to try the Iggee covers that had been marked on my ebay page for months.....got to say, for 179 bucks for the pair, they aren't too bad, they fit pretty snug, and were easy to install. The vinyl is thick and sewn well...they almost look like the real deal..The armrest covers are a tad loose..I may work with them a little. I think as temps rise, some of the wrinkles will settle too.

Nice. Any pics of the back of the seat? Do they full wrap around?

 

[mikeacs]

I'll take one in a bit...but yes, they do a full wrap around, with a nice pocket in the back.

Those look good....thanks for posting. Much more in line with my price point.

Those do look great. I have never seen a cover look so much like OEM leather. They are vinyl? How is the butt feel and wonder they will wear over time?

 

[mikeacs]

They are a really thick vinyl...how long they'll last is anyones guess...but as thick as they are they should do pretty well...probably more water resistant too..My sunroof was a chronic leaker...and thats ultimately what ruined my other seats I think....They seem fairly comfortable, although it feels like I'm a bit higher in the seat...No doubt leather is better, but for a rig used and abused like mine...they'll do the job nicely.

Really nice.
My wife wants sheep skin covers. The leather is so hot in summer, she can hardly sit on it.

 

[TwiceWithHair]

Booooooo sheep skin. I'm rocking wet okole with no regrets. The covers OP has look great though. Especially at $179/pair

How do they match up with the back seats? Those look real good.

 

[dragoncruiser]

Those have the best fit I have seen so far. Could you please post the link where you bought them.
I really need some (gin grey though)

 

[dragoncruiser]

Found them on ebay. They should hire you as their photographer, because from their pictures I would have never guessed that they look so good.
Just wonder how hot will they get. It's pretty hot here in Nicaragua 90% of the year...

They do look great. My seats still have years left, but what's the process on installing them? Are they just slip on's?

 

[mikeacs]

They should give me a commission!..anyway they were pretty easy..the bottoms have the loops and little hooks that are pulled tight and hooked on the old seat springs...I had to remove the seat bolts and the side panel with the controls, and be careful that I didnt pull the cords through the tilt mechanisms of the seat ...I didn't take the seat all the way out, just propped it up where I could get at the bottom....The top covers have a wide velcro strip that tucks between the seat bottom and top, and meets the strip on the back of the cover, then there is another velcro strip on the side that you pull tight...I have mine pulled a bit in the pic so that it is visable...

As far as the match, its not exact..but I didn't really think it would be. Its actually pretty close, maybe a shade lighter..

Here's the back view.

Can you post a link? I can't find ones that look like these.

 

[Keowee]

iggee.com gives more info.

Can the OP confirm this will work? If you know.

 

[mikeacs]

Here's the ebay link...that's the way I bought them. They'll ask for a pic of your old seats...I told them my cruiser was exactly like the one in their photo...but the color chart is at the bottom of the listing...

Cheaper on their Ebay store front.

Just talked with Iggee. They said they can do the arm rests + center for ~$40. I think I'm going to order black for the front.

 

[mikeacs]

The armrest covers don't quite fit as well as the seatcovers. I wish I would have thought about the center console...Mine's okay but the color is just a tad off, maybe just due to the age....I may email them and get it sent over..
