installed Okoles?- please come in
I just got a set of WOs and am installing them- not impressed with the
fit on the backrest of the seat. The fabric 'tents' between the bolsters.
I have seen pictures on the forum that looked like they fit purty good-
am I missing something? If the cover is stretched tight enough to
address the problem- the provided velcro strips are far past making
contact. Any advice? Thanks Gene

I too saw the "tenting effect" and felt they fit like crap and threw them in the trash... The same "slip covers" can be found at Pepboys for 25 dollars....Dive suit material belongs on a SCUBA diver..
