It's Wet Okole, not Wet Oakleys.
Fyi, "okole" is the Hawaiian word for butt. Yeah, Wet Butt seat covers, hence waterproof.

Thanks for your post and all the installation and opinion information. I 've been seriously considering these Wet Oakley's as well, in black and grey. Actually here are two links with pictures from this site of others who have installed the Wet Oakleys. I think they look great! I had a question about how comfortable the wet suit material would be, but apparently it's fine, not sticky, and very comfortable.

Here are the links to the other discussions with pics on this site for others like me who have not taken the plunge yet:

I was told by someone at wet okole that it might be better to get the black and charcoal.. ( i am awaiting swatches to see the difference). He said that the gray is pretty light and it might get dirty quicker.

I went with the charcoal, with light grey piping. Fairly conservative, but they look great.

They clean right up too. They'll only show dirt if you don't clean them once in a while. In fact, they encourage you to clean them regularly to keep them pliable and in good condition, ala a wetsuit (salt, drys out, breaks down).

They are a huge improvement over the stock fabric.

Good move on the swatches. At over $500 for the set, you can afford to be patient.

Actually the black and charcoal idea sounds like it would even look better with our grey interior. Sorry about the misspelling.........

Anyone with the bisque interior ordered these? Just curious about which color looks best. I am picking up my Seaside #4 tomorrow and it will have the bisque interior. Charcoal sounds kind of nice with the blue exterior, but I am wondering about the interior...
