EKR Seat Covers - My experience, pictures, and tips.

You also have to lower the seat backwards to allow for more give. Makes it much easier.

I have the fake leather cooled seats and was considering these as well.
Wondering if the neoprene versions would allow some airflow. Any concerns with airbag deployment and these covers?

They feel fairly breathable. Can't speak on cooled seats, but I can say my heated seats still work absolutely fine, never noticed any change although I did expect some.

These covers are made with airbags in mind, they have a little opening on the side where the airbag would be, covered up by a flap on fabric on the inside that still covers your original seats without causing any concern for airbag deployment

Definitely! When you're tucking between the backrest and the seat, tilting it back helps a bunch.

I probably spent more time moving the seat in every direction it possibly can than I did actually installing the covers but it helps significantly.

Also really helps to raise the seat as high as it can go when working on the bottom 2/3s of the seat. Won't admit how long it took me to remember the seat can go up and down too

Thanks for the feedback. I may pick up a set to protect the factory fake leather.

Is there a small “gap” between the seat cover and the actual seat like kind of in the middle? I’m installing mine now and I can tell it’s got like a pocket of gap between it and the actual seat even though I’ve got it tight everywhere else
