After I unbolted the seats,I carefully lifted the seats up high enough just to connect the fasteners and hooks..I left the electric cables connected..
The leaf seats are actually very easy to unbolt compared to other seats I have installed in other cars..

I did the same. It was easy to move the seats around to gain proper access without stressing the attached cables. The cables are anchored in in such a way that you'd have to pull them OUT of the anchors to put any stress on the connections themselves. Use a little care, and you'll should be fine.mark13 wrote:After I unbolted the seats,I carefully lifted the seats up high enough just to connect the fasteners and hooks..I left the electric cables connected..

I went with same color combination (EDIT: not really, went with #21 and #11) and had them installed by WO in Costa Mesa. Here are a couple of photos that WO took after the install ...rawhog wrote:Gotta say, they look really nice in the box, but they are a bit darker(light gray with cobalt piping) than the photos on here.

Back Seats

Are you sure you went with Cobalt blue piping like rawhog? Your piping in the pics seems much darker than Cobalt blue. I have Tan and Cobalt blue piping and my Cobalt blue is a much lighter blue than yours in your pics. Your piping looks like Navy blue.Beachcliffs wrote:I went with same color combination and had them installed by WO in Costa Mesa.rawhog wrote:Gotta say, they look really nice in the box, but they are a bit darker(light gray with cobalt piping) than the photos on here.

My badrawhog wrote:Might be just the pictures. But that definitely does not look the same color piping as what came on mine. Notice the difference between the piping and the logo?
. Piping is charcoal (#11) in our ride. Raw wrote "cobalt", I saw "charcoal".Black SLe - res 4/20/10 - order 10/4/10 - Power Nissan

Got my seats. Charcoal with grey piping. The seats look nice but yet to install. I think they would look nicer after install. The installation is going to be the difficult part. surprised there were no instructions..

Re: Wet Okole Seat Cover Group Buy **COMPLETED**
No instructions were least of my surprises... The company seems to track their orders on a piece of paper, with no indications when it would ship or tracking numbers or invoices in the box of any kinda... I wasn't even been given an order # and they looked up my order by last name... at least seats are nice quality, although the fit could've been better.csriram45 wrote:Got my seats.
