    Looks awesome! I have been trying to convince my wife to let me get these. I was surprised to find this thread here while browsing, having lived in Hawaii Wet Okole is the only way to go. I am wondering how the Wet Okole logo on the back of the seat cover will look. Did you get this? Were the armrest covers for front and back included or extra? I am thinking of getting blue/black and am not sure what color to go with for the back "Wet Okole" logo. Good choice on the new "Prius" logo, looks awesome!

    Logo for the back is not available. Armrests are included.

    First of all, the seats look great!

    The main question I had, was weather or not these are just covers that go over the current fabric or whether or not you had to remove the stock material?

    Thanks for sharing the great pics!

    How long did it take to install them?
    I was looking at the Prius seat installation instructions....gulp....for someone who never seems to be able to follow "simple" instructions from manufacturers, it doesn't look very easy.

    I recently placed and order for the back seat covers to complete mine. I'll probably post once I get them. Hope they are as easy as the front seat to install.

    I didn't find the Prius logo on their site... is that a custom job for you?

    I think the back seats were easier than the fronts to install.

    If you want the new logo you will have to ask for the new Prius logo. I don't know why they have not put it up on their site yet. Maybe because they need to get it licensed or something?

    It took me about two hours to install both front and back. I have the blue and black covers. The only problem I had was in locating the clips under the rear seats to release the lower seat cushion. There is a link on the site here for the complete seat installation and uninstallation procedure. The only part you need is where it shows the location of the two front clips and the back clip. I was surprised how hard I had to pull up on the front clips to get them to unlock. After that it was a breeze. Good luck.

    We put the red and black front seat covers on our Barcelona last year - love 'em. Now that I've seen these pics of the back seat . . . well, I know I'm old enough that my 'wants' shouldn't hurt me, but I'm beginning to really want covers for the back, too!

    Only problem I've had is that husband doesn't seem to think they should be on straight when he finished - so he left them crooked, and crooked they are.

    At least they're on - but I can't figure out how to get them to look nice and straight and even like you guys did!

    I love 'em. But, living in hot and humid Ohio, I've gotta ask -- how do they feel in the hot weather?

    During the past few days of hot weather the seats stayed pretty cool. They compare to the regular cloth seat covers.

    I'm thinking of buying the same seat covers. Have you found any problems with them?

    I went to leather in '04 but checked out the web site just for grins. Explode the pic's. The background of the cars (Prius, Sequoia, whatever you click on) is photoshopped, and kind of cheesily. So it did make be grin :p

    Only problem is that they are expensive.

    Any buyer's remorse? Do you think they are worth the investment?

    Probably a stupid question, but how does one "ask for the new Prius logo?" Just order and include a message about wanting that? Thanks!
