    yeh these seat covers are where you remove the existing material/leather from the seat leaving the you with the foam on the frame. then with the new ones there made to be a tight fit so they dont move around and there made to hug every nook and cranny of the seat foam and look like factory leather except you can have more colours different stitching and even genuine leather. and because i have a ute it'll cost me $370+$25p&h so id feel pretty comfortable to try them out.

    You never know, they could be done really well.

    Whatever you do, don't go with Proseat, I've been screwed around for 6 months with them still with no product in hand! Lucky I only put down $200 deposit

    I've been chasing them up for 6 months! In the end I gave up and asked for my money back which mind you I'm still chasing up! Think it's time for Australian Fair Trading to step in!

    That metal vented bonnet looks fricken awesome. Shame about the $2200 price tag.
