Wet Okole help

My car came with a set of Wet Okole's, and I don't know how the lowers go on. The car is a 2000 FRC with manual seats.

Any help is appreciated!

Go on the same way no matter what the seat-I actually took my sport seats out to put mine on-makes it a lot easier.

I was really hoping that the seat bun came out like it did on my C4-it was really easy to put my Iggees on. Since it's supposed to rain this
weekend, I guess I'll have a project....

Thanks for the find!

I pulled my seats as you suggested, and they went on so dang easy!

Thanks for everybody's help!

I need to visit my local tailor shop, there is an area where the thread has seperated, and needs to be stitched. Look at the last pic, toward the bottom of the top cover.

Yep-it's the way to fly and you get to clean under the seats.

Those look great! Very interested in them. But one last question...Do they stay put? Or do they slide around and get bunched up when you get in and out?

Nice and tight! I haven't touched them since I got out if that gives you an idea...
