Talking Seatcovers that match Screaming Yellow

JC Whitney has some CoverKing NeoTex seat covers that absolutely *exactly* match the 05 Screaming Yellow. And they're cheep - only $40 a pair. They are not neoprene, but look/feel like neoprene. I needed something to keep the Dk. Charcoal leather from scorching me - I leave the top down most of the time, and I got tired of riding a wadded-up towel, so I ordered these to try. Here's the link:
http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...RICE|0/s-10101

I got the low-back buckets. They were a PITA to install, but that's just because I'm old and can't do contortions underneath Mustang seats, LOL. I will try to get pix tonight. (it was dark by the time I got them installed last nite.)

The only disadvantage I've found is that CoverKing doesn't make back seat covers to match.

Also - I'm unsure whether to leave the headrest covers on or not. They have the bright yellow centers and really make those funky-forward headrests show up.

FWIW, the Wet Okole's Solar Yellow is too dull, I decided against them. Maybe they'll get in a different yellow one of these days, but I don't want to "settle" for a color that doesn't look perfect, especially on about $500 worth of seatcovers (front & back).

Default word of warning...

it doesn't mention them in your sig, but if you have the side seat airbags, seat covers are a BAD idea. Makes it a shrapnel filled ejection seat....

otherwise, I'd love to see pics. I considered ordering cloth seats and going with the okoles. I wanted something that was sweat resistant for post mountainbiking. I got the leather instead.

I don't have the side air bags, but if I did, these seat covers have a velcro flap where the side airbags go. They pull apart very easily.

It is T minus 5 mins till I get off work, THEN I will definitely have pix

Talking Pictures!!!

OK, here we go:
From front and back with the headrest covers, then from front and back without them. Which do you like? Then a closeup of the velcro airbag slot opened up.

nice touch sunboss. i like em. thanks for the pics. i will have to look into getting some for mine now. but i like without the headrest covers. certainly adds to the interior and will save the leather.
