Wet Okole seat covers

got my seat covers today for the LGT, and i must say that i am EXTREMELY impressed with the quality and fit. they didn't even have the pattern for the '05+ Legacy seats, so they requested i e-mail them some pics of the seats.

they fit perfectly. i didn't even mention the lumbar adjust, and not sure it was even visible in the photos, but there was a cutout for it. no wrinkles, no sagging across the bolsters - nice n' tight.

not sure if they have an SVX pattern in stock, but they could make one from some pics. highly recommended. nice people to deal with, too.

$235 for the fronts + options (back side pockets, logos, custom colors/piping, etc.)


they custom make them, so if you provide the ecsaine, its possible. you'd have to call them and ask.

Definately a great fit. I would have went for something with a little more styling to it, but they still look good.

i considered grey inserts, but they wouldn't have matched the stock rear seats grey inserts, so i didn't want two non-matching colors. can't go wrong with all black.

the 5EAT rocks. the only thing i lose is a little bit of power to the torque converter and a headache when i'm in traffic on the way to work.

if your WRX seats are anything like the LGT seats, it would be well worth it for you to get some of these merely for the extra cushioning - my seats are actually quite comfortable now!

Seat covers

Hi Alan, Those seat covers look like they came with the car. Who did you get them from? Take care, BOBB

Wet Okole, in Hawaii. they custom make every set from Neoprene (scuba wetsuit material), and you can get rear seat covers, too. lots of options, great people to deal with. they even called my house a few times - it seems to be one of those rare companies that makes a great product and has excellent and friendly customer service.
