2024 XLT Coverado Seat Covers

[Trimjb]

I posted a thread asking which seat covers you all are using.
I decided to go with Coverado front and rear.
I ended up sending them back.
I didn't like the amount of pieces used for the rear seat and had a heck of a time trying to install the fronts.
Problem with the fronts is the back of the seat you have to attach a plastic disc to a strap and try to force it down between the back and seat and attach the disc to another strap on the back side of the cover.
My issue was there is a plastic flap on the OEM seat back that curls under the seat cushion. Not as easy as just pushing the strap thru the crack and out the bottom.
With a bit of fighting we got the straps thru an attached but it sure didn't look right.
Next was trying to install the bottom cover.
We couldn't figure out how to get the buckle between the plastic side and around the airbag wiring and buckle it. This was just the outside buckle, the inside (center console side is even worse.
We watched a YouTube video and the guy made it looks simple
Not sure why we had to fight it so much.
We really liked the covers and wished we could have made them fit easier.
Looking for advise on installing just the fronts.
I might reorder just the fronts if we can figure out the install.
Instructions are very vague.

Even the Cordura seat covers I bought were a pain to install.
That plastic flap you mentioned is held in place by an elastic cord that loops and is secured under the seat. Removing those loops isn't easy, but makes slipping the straps between the back and seat easier. It also helps to have the back rest lowered as far back as it will go.

Thanks for the info.
I'll have to take a look.
