If only they were easily compatible with the Rubicon seatbacks like the PRP seats. Wish those came in neoprene.

I've never had neoprene seats. How do they breathe/feel compared to cloth?

I personally like them and have not had any issues. Now, I live in Ohio, so I can't say how they would be down south. I think they feel a little cooler than the cloth seats. But that's just my personal experience.

Are these not compatible with Rubicon seats?

How is the FIT and do they slide around?

Since they are pre-order only, I can't tell you if they have the MOLLE on them. For the price, I'll give them a shot and report sometime in June when they ship. Like I said, I really like the ones I have in my JKU and I've been waiting for these to finally get released. I refuse to pay $350+ for any seat cover:like:

Honestly, yes they will slide around. Not easily. But yes, they can slide. I just readjust the buckles and tighten them up:like: They have saved my back seats many times from the grandkids and their mishaps:facepalm:. They are easy to clean. Just wipe down or remove and hand wash and air dry.

These are JKU ones that have been on for 2 years and 60k miles. I haven't adjusted them in several months. So you can see the actual seat cover will slide some. I'm also very lazy and short and I slide in and out of my Jeeps. I'm just trying to be honest:like:

If it helps, I have the SmittyBilt neoprene seat covers which basically look the same as and are very similar to these Quadratec covers.

As for how they breath, they seem to be OK and have yet to feel too hot or too cold. Granted we've yet to get into the heat and humidity of summer here, so we'll see how that goes when we get to that point.

In terms of fit, the back seat covers (top and bottom) on my JLU fit fine. The front seat bottoms also fit fine. My complaint is with the front seat backs. They balloon away from the actual seat backs and make the seats look puffy and bigger than they are. I just can't get the covers tight enough on the seat backs. I worked with SmittyBilt support and they were useless. That's my only gripe. I got the SmittyBilts on sale, so I really can't complain all that much. I will likely swap them out with PRPs at some point.

Well this is a timely post. What color is the insert on your JK ones? I just came across these and was intrigued if it was worth giving them a shot at that price or if I should just pony up and get the Bartact fronts then figure out a cheap solution for the backs since I've got twin 4 yr olds in car seats back there.

I'm also in Ohio and your positive experience has me strongly considering them. My biggest concerns with the neoprene is them being hot and color fade too quick but at this price point I can get a full set and still have $ leftover for some other goodies I need. Ballin on a budget has its limitations :LOL:

Yeah is wouldn’t worry about fading because i would just replace. But I would like to see the neoprene in person. I’ve been pretty hard on my cloth seats. Love the way they feel but they are hard to keep clean when you like to hit the trails with no doors on.

That color is actually Charcoal. That's also what I ordered for my JL. Also, they have saved my seats from the grandkids and their contraband:like:
