Read the reviews, it's 50/50. I wonder if they will do pick up service.

Ok took over a month to get the samples (Small 1"x 2 1/4" ish) but they are here, I also have samples from another supplier (don't want to use their name Message me privately) and they are at least the same thickness, perforated holes same spacing, and it looks good to me for the price (yes I saw the reviews of long times to get covers and stuff) I will pick my colors and style and order this week or next, will post progress and replacement.

I ordered a set from Lseat because they were just so damned cheap for sport seats. There are a couple of reviews over on Pelican and it seems it's definitely a crap shoot. I have to wonder how much incorrect installation had an effect on the final results though. I'll be posting pics when I get them in and installed. Hopefully it comes out well.

I sent 4 emails as they do not answer the phone and their answer is just order on line, so I will and I am hoping things go with out a hitch and they are the covers I want and they don't take 6 months to get them. I will keep every one posted

I have these covers on my sport seats and the quality and fit is pretty good, but and it's a big "but". The piping on my covers is really bad and is worn through after less than a month of use (not my daily driver). They are sending me replacement covers and I will report back on the quality of the piping on them.

Well, they look nice from here.

Six weeks. I guess that's one of the costs of bargain hunting.

I like the perforated inserts. Hope they go on OK. I did my motorcycle seats in the hot sun, to get good pull.
