Wet Okole Hawaii

Purchased these at the swap meet, what I received did not look like any display they had, even in the shop. After over an hour of install, debate, and un-​install, I left dissatisfied with money in hand. This could all have been avoided with better communication. I’ll find somewhere else to spend my $ 300.

Love my new seat covers! They fit like a glove and they’re super comfortable (definitely worth the $$$). I placed my order online and they were ready to be picked up/​installed a couple weeks after. I made an appointment to have them installed and it only took about 20 minutes. I only got my front seats covered, but I will be ordering for my back seats in the near future.

Awesome seat covers, now I can let my little nieces in my truck! Perfect fit, quick install, great customer service! Don’t forget to tip!

Called in for a purchase of front and back covers. The experience was a breeze, but they failed to get my invoice sent to the correct email address. Yikes! Where did my personal information sent to? I had to call in and get this corrected.
Once you get your hands on the invoice you will find itemized items. However, it doesn’t detail the specifics you gave them which gets you wondering if your order was placed correctly. I had to give them a call to verify and it seems their invoice generator is not as fancy that today’s technology can provide. Service rep claimed my vehicle is the same as all, but it just doesn’t make sense to survey customers if they already know the answer.
Overall, I highly recommend ordering online rather than over the phone. You’ll save lots of guess work and be very much assured.

Wanted to purchase seat covers so I went to the shop on my lunch break… Walked in the front door and noticed people in the back area. Walked around the small showroom, sat in all the seats on display, cheeked a couple emails, tried to make some noise, looked around some more and left. I work as a salesman in a showroom and if my customer service for a walk in was like that I would be fired.
The seat covers seem like they are well made and are fairly comfortable (I sat on a bunch in the showroom)… kind of over it though.

Woohoo! Finally get to review this place!
Initially, I was concerned about a previous reviewer mentioning the seats getting hot. I’m a sweaty dude and I was leaving sweat stains on my 2014 Subaru Forester which was a lease! After exhaustive research on Unilocal,YouTube, and various car forums, I took the $ 600+ plunge!
I have been a happy camper since I bought these babies a year ago. I got ultramarine blue seats with golden sun yellow piping. My seats look gorgeous! Everything is waterproof, no overheating! The seats are so comfortable that I’ve had passengers tell me it feels like they’re sitting on marshmallows!
Lifetime warranty on seams and straps. These babies are sturdy! A worthy investment to protect your seats, look good, and feel good. Don’t be a dumb okole, buy yourself some Wet Okole!

Perfect to make your car look new !

This is my second set of Wet Okole seat covers and I couldn’t be happier with the product. What made this purchase even better than my first was that on this occasion, the sales person advised me that the company offered free installation. So, our vacation trip to SoCal was made in conjunction with picking up our seat covers and installation.
The installation process went flawless until the installers tried to reinstall the baby seat in the rear seat. It was very difficult to connect the baby seat straps to the baby seat hooks. It was difficult due to the thickness of the seat covers. After numerous efforts, the installer was able to make the connection although we started to wonder if this was going to be possible after a long while.
After leaving the facility, I noticed that a seat belt buckle was missing from the rear seat. The vehicle was brought back and one of the installers reached into the rear seat and pulled up the buckle which previously slipped beneath the rear seat.
It would have been nice if the sales person had advised that it may be potentially more difficult to reinstall a baby seat following the seat cover installation.
Two lessons learned: (1) Seriously consider whether or not you are going to install rear seat covers if you are going to have to put in a baby seat at some point; (2) Inspect the car seats after the seat cover installation to ensure none of the seat buckles have slipped beneath the seat.
A tip was left for the installers and the total installation time was about one hour for the front and rear seat covers.

The service was amazing. The finished product, equally amazing. I just got my new seat covers and I could not be happier. They were ready earlier than expected and installed much quicker than I was told, all in all, a most positive experience. I recommend them highly

Sold me a $ 575 set of seat covers for my 2014 Chevy Silverado at the OC Swap Meet. Showed up as scheduled and they had ordered the wrong covers. Came back the next day and after 1 ½ hours they said the installation was done. When I inspected the back seat folding arm rest/​cup holder wouldn’t close flush sticking out from the back seat by 4″. I asked about it and they said that’s how all of these fit. I said that’s unacceptable. Why do you not tell people about this design flaw before they purchase them? Well, we can give you a solid back seat cover but you’ll lose access to the fold down arm rest/​cup holders. No, take them off and give me my money back. 3 days wasted. Never again.

I drove down from San Francisco for my third sets of seat covers on my 3^rd car. The manager (Ana) was very friendly and the installation was perfect. I have small kids and this material works the best.

Warning! The seat covers gets HOT!
Great buying experience but the only problem with these beautiful seats which no one ever told me, they are HOT! In the summer the seats stay warmer than usual even with my AC blasting. I drive a lot to Northern Cal and Vegas and on a hot day even just 77 degrees my back is sweating with the AC blasting. I finally had to remove the covers because it traps in your body heat in the seat covers=(

I got my seat cover from them about 4 months ago. Finally time to write review.
I had them to make a set of covers for my BMW. I picked orange color. They warned me that the color will fade if exposed to sun light a lot as my car is convertible.
But the color still stays good. Maybe because I don’t take my top off very often.
They installed it for me (Lucky I live close to them) and it fits perfectly.
One thing I noticed that the seat stretches if you sit on it with wallet in your back pocket. But with some water and hair dryer, it went back to tight fit.
I am very satisfied with the fit and look of the covers. They look like OEM!

The Wet Okole folks were great. I ordered a set of seat covers for my ’85 Westfalia (pretty obscure). When I received them, one of them didn’t fit exactly right. The Wet Okolo folks expedited another set that fit perfectly. I couldn’t be happier. Great customer service.

Very happy with my purchase!
My tiny car is even more of a head turner now: D
Love the seat covers, need to get it professionally installed once everything gets sorted out with my car.
I am so glad I went with these guys and supported a local business because as much as I want to keep my car JDM, just not practical to order custom seat covers all the way from Japan.
My initial worry was that this would not be airbags compatible but they turned out to be. When you have 11 air bags on your four-​seater car, kind of hard not to worry.

Their patterned seat covers bottom and back are bonded to half inch thick foam for comfort & protection. The boxing neoprene is laminated with nylon on both sides, making it twice as strong. No rubber touches your seat material which is especially important with leather or vinyl seats. They offer color combinations to match just about any interior.

Installation took about an hour.

I just got my custom seat covers installed at Wet Okole and love them! The whole experience was excellent. David helped me up front and was extremely helpful and professional! I was kind of just going in to look around. I had bought some front seat covers from a competitor, and after installing them myself, wasn’t too happy with the fit and look. Plus no rear seat covers.
I found Wet Okole online, through my dealership, and stumbled on their location, by accident. When David explained that they installed everything for FREE, and they had rear covers, and some nice features that my other ones didn’t have– I was sold! I ordered my front and rear covers, made an appointment for the install in two weeks and went home.
My seat covers arrived in one week, but due to my work schedule, I had to wait the extra week to come in and get them installed.
David remembered me and my name! And the installers took about 45 minutes to install the front and rear covers. The guys did a GREAT job, and I recommend tipping them well! They work hard and are VERY professional! I never could have installed that rear seat myself, and was HAPPY to give them a generous tip!
I even had an opportunity to speak with the owners who take great pride the workmanship and the customer service. I love that!
I really like to support the local business’ who go the extra mile and offer the personal touch– and did they ever! They also can make repairs if something happens down the road– awesome!
The covers look awesome and now my cloth seats won’t be stained. And I LOVE the lumbar support insert.
Thanks to David and the staff at Wet Okole, I took a stack of cards to drop of at my dealership, so they can send others to Costa Mesa.

The hubby realized that his light colored car seats were starting to turn blue from his jeans so someone recommended this place to us to look into car seat covers.
This place is very clean, great customer service and within 2 weeks they were installing the new seat covers on the Benz. To bad they couldn’t do the back seat because the fronts look so good!
They even put the Benz emblem on the covers — I like them now better then the original seats. Heated seats still work as well, just takes a bit longer to get fully heated. I would say that this was a win-​win and the hubby is very happy with the results.

I’ve had cloth seats in all my cars until I got my new car. It has light gray colored «MB-​Tex» which is Mercedes’s fancy name for vinyl. One thing I didn’t know beforehand is jeans are vinyl and leather seats arch-​nemesis. The dye in the jeans leaches into the seats due to the abrasion of getting in and out of the car. After only two months my seats were getting bad and it was a total pain in the ass to clean. I figured getting some custom made tight fitting seat covers would be the answer. I guess Mercedes owners are expected to only wear slacks. Well eff that, I wear jeans.
I read Steven N’s review from 2009 and contacted him a few weeks ago if he still has the covers. He still loves the product and highly recommended them.
Wet Okole’s seats are made from neoprene, the same material wet suits are made from. They are custom made for your exact car to ensure a completely snug fit. Neoprene is water proof and easy to clean. They offer many different colors and patterns. Best part is these covers are made right here in Costa Mesa. No Chinese made crap sold here. Good olé’ Made in the USA!
I went in to the shop and picked out my seats with the help of the sales person. I got black seats with gray piping and added a benz logo. It took two weeks to make and installation was free (tip suggested) at the shop. I think the seats came out great and they are very comfortable thanks to the added padding. If you need some extremely durable seat covers these are for you. Every employee I dealt with was extremely helpful and friendly. I had a great experience from beginning to end.
My only complaint is they wouldn’t do the back seat. They’d make the covers but I’d have to install them. They said the seat would have to come out and MB makes it too complicated to remove so due to liability they wouldn’t do it. If the pros won’t do it I sure as hell won’t so I only got the front seats done.
Here’s a before shot of my seats without the covers.
Here’s pics of my seats covers installed!
Moral of the story is if you wear jeans and you’re going to have vinyl or leather seats make sure they are black! Otherwise you’ll be doing business here at Wet Okole!

I researched many companies before I bought these seat covers. I wanted covers that would stay in place, protect the seats, look awesome, and clean easy. Wet Okole meets my demands and continually exceeds my expectations.
Purchased in 2008, these red covers still look sleek and sexy in contrast to my black jeep. :D I love the vibrant color and the cool piping. The website offers dozens of colors and design options.
Installation was easy. They are made specific to model and are custom, so be aware– no returns. The covers fit exact to my seats and, as a result they stay put. Furthermore, all levers are exposed. Yaay!
I have sloshed mud, spilled food, and tracked dirt, but these seats have yet to be defeated by any stain. A simple scrub and stains disappear.
I was most impressed recently when I tore a hole in the driver seat center panel. I called the company. $ 15, plus I pay shipping both ways and I get my cover fixed! That made a total of only $ 35. I was elated. The employees are a pleasure to deal with. Courteous and friendly.
More expensive than some competitors, but worth the investment, no question!
