Looking for new seat covers that won’t break the bank. Good quality, etc

Was looking at Diver Down neoprene seat covers as they are only $200 for the whole set

Any one have any experience with Neoprene? Any other suggestions?

I've been running rough country seat covers ($150 for JLU) for over 2 years and extremely happy with them! There was nothing else available at that time in that price range. Now there are numerous options from several manufacturers.

Those diver down ones are probably the ones i am going to get as well. Good price point and they fit really well as seen in the video. Just wish yellow wasnt out of stock...

Thanks for the response! How are they with the heated seats? How are they in the summer with doors and top off?

Was thinking they be good for easy cleaning, etc

I have SB's, no heated seats. Like them so far, good fit and lots of molle on the back and headrests 😉

I don't have heated seats yet, however they are supposed to work fine with it. I run top off often without issues and dirt/spills/pet hair etc clean fine

does neoprene capture heat with the top off or stay cool like cloth? That’s the thing that has kept me from pulling the trigger.

I think they will be hot in the summer. You may need the bead seat cover on top of them for air circulation. No experience as seat covers but with jackets. They get stuffy quickly.

Fine in the summer with top on however black color absorbs heat when parked in direct sun with top off. When driving top off no issues.

Its more about color than material.

Ask a auto canvas repair shop how much they'll want for seat covers, and do consider your side airbags that blow out the side of the seatback.

I had neoprene seat covers on an old jk. Summer in the south, those things will give you swamp crotch. I won’t have them again.
Wow! Didn't need that much information :LOL:

You're right though... Local climate matters. High humidity is not really an issue on the west coast.

Smittybilt neoprene seat covers have been fine for me. No problem with conduction through the heated seats. In the summer these are actually cooler than leather they are covering underneath. Leather sometimes gets so hot you think your skin might burn whereas neoprene does not. But neoprene will be warmer than cloth.

Try Extreme Terrain. I got a set for under $200 (Neoprene). Front and rear. Fit great and are comfortable.
