New jeep question.
 
Traded my 91yj for a 2004 sport. Are the seat covers water resistant or do
I need to do something to protect them?
thanks

Re: New jeep question.
 
What do you want? Water proof or water resistant?!

Are they vinyl or cloth?

My '02TJ had that stooopid cow leather ass soaking material! Great....it's
waterproof, but I'd hate to be a cow!
I bought some Wet Okeole's (sp?) for the front seats....I drive, let the ppl
in back sear their asses off!! haha

The jury's out in either material type....
the waterproof (vinyl-like) will leave puddles on your seats....where the
cloth will soak some.
In either case, you'll need a towel!!

Re: New jeep question.
 
If you're referring to the factory cloth seats, the word is no. I
have an '03 with cloth and while they repel a bit of bee.... um,
PEPSI when dribbled on them, they suck up rain like crazy if left
exposed. Just leave the top off during a rainstorm and you'll know.
Not much in the way of "scotchguard"... If you want water PROOF, I'd
go with neoprene covers from somewhere like Quadratec or other...

My $0.02.

Re: New jeep question.
 
Have you ever seen how long it takes a neoprene wet suit to dry out?

Man I sure wouldn't want that on my seats or seat....

They sell plastic seat covers pretty cheap. A friend uses them when
mudding or leaving the top off when sitting. If you don't need them
they come off in 5 seconds.
