Default Anyone else with Wet Okoles?

Just put them on yesterday (black with white piping). I'll try to post pics later today.

However, I'm having one problem--I can't figure out the back bench bottom. I don't understand how to run the straps under the bench. I'm gonna call Wet Okole later, but if anyone that's done it can tell me, that would probably be easier...

Thanks,
Nilus

I have some Wet Okoles in the back, for a Dirty Dog. I like them, except the headrest covers, which were a bit ill-fitting.

Are you having trouble getting the bench out? Just pull up the front of it. There are two clips on the front edge, toward the outside. It doesn't seem like it will come up, but it will (with a pop). Then, there is a clip in the center back. You can unhook this, or not. You'll be able to thread the straps under the bench, and the seatbelts up through the holes.

Getting the bench front clips to reclip is a bit hard, get a knee on it.

That's exactly what the problem was. I didn't think the back bench came up. Thanks...I'll go try again. And here are some pics...

Really nice, man. Mine look plain next to those...maybe I should have opted for some color!

And I also found the headrests a little funky...nothing major, but not a perfect fit.

Not TOO bad. At a few points, I was a little frustrated. I had to do it all in the parking lot of a car wash out in NJ since living in NYC doesn't afford me the luxury of a driveway. I'd say it took an hour...maybe a little longer. The fronts are pretty simple. The back bench is a little more involved.

I'm used to getting myself in and out of a wetsuit so I guess that helped a little (you always gotta pull a little harder than you think you should!).
