Neoprene seat covers at Costco

Not sure if it's just a local thing here in Southern California, but I just picked up 2 sets of neoprene seat covers at Costco for $18.98 a pair!!!
I know what you're thinking, POS, right? Hardly. The front ones fit great and look almost identical to the Nissan ones.
I got grey /black, but they also come in red/black and blue/black.
The rears are a little harder to get to fit because of the shape of the seat, but with a little tugging and cinching work pretty well.
Hell, for $40 total, who can beat it? If I can get a hold of a digital camera I'll post some pics.

Sounds awesome, but are they tailor made for the X or are they just generic fit all vehicle sized?

www.wetokole.com has great neoprene seat covers--all color combos and even cammo but expensive as hell.

They're not custom made for the X, but like I said, they fit well / look great.
I went to a buddy's house awhile ago, and the first thing he asked me was when did I get the Nissan seat covers. I had to laugh. The black/grey ones I bought are nearly identical to the Nissans (except these don't have the separate headrest cover...it just fits over it)

I have my headrests up a notch or so and they fit fine (given the stretchability of the neoprene).
I haven't put my headrest all the way up, but that might be pushing it.
It's not the perfect neoprene seat cover alternative for everyone, but definitely a sweet deal for a lot of people.

Now I'm really curious... Got pix?
I'm still debating the Wet Okoles, but I think I'll wait until the Nissan ones are fairly trashed. So far, they're holding up really well - but the fit issues are another story (which we all know and err, love).

They're item number 441988. $18.99 for a set of 2 covers.
If they don't have them at your Costco, go to customer service and have them transferred from another store.
I drove around with them today and am very happy with how they work on the front seats.
Like I said in my previous post, being universal fit, they're a little tough with the odd shape of the rear seats... but I'm not complaining.
Pics are hard as I don't have a digital camera, but I'll try.

I'm heading down to Costco now. Sorry about not being in touch with anyone lately. Work has me doing 70 hour weeks lately!!!! And my X was broken for a couple of weeks. So with those 2 combined, I haven't been reading many of the boards...I kind of didn't want to know what I was missing out on!!! BUT I'm back....and I'm working REALLY hard to get off for ECXC!!!!!! I'll let you know what I find at Costco!!! Rich PS...the roofrack.....I can throw one together for you...I just have to figure out a better way of mounting them to the X, and a better floor system.....any ideas????? Later

I went to Costcos web site and didn't find them there. If someone could pick me up a pair of the gray, I'd be glad to pay for them plus shipping to Oklahoma Thanks Reece

it must be a cali thing... i just bought a set & installed them, not too shabby. because they are "universal" not the perfect fit but...because they are neoprene they are snug & can be conformed. my only complaint/problem was due to the seat belt opening being too small or not aligned w/mine made a crease that caused it to puff out a little. overall, cant beat the price compared to wet okole. buy them while they're still there...
