Neoprene seat covers?

[jenoper]

I've seen them on Jeeps and other cars but no match so far for any VW. Am I looking in the wrong place?

You are talking about the Wet Okole (sp) seat covers.
the hawaiian print ones? http://www.wetokole.com/

Wet Okole makes nice, comfortable well constructed covers.

But a bit of a warning, as I have them both on my Cabriolet and my 1981 16V Caddy:

They fade

The red/black ones in the Cabriolet eventually got really sun bleached.
The solid black ones on the pickup have held up surprisingly well, but there again, are not as subject to direct UV from the sun as those in the cabriolet.

I considered using a dye, such as RIT, to restore the Cabby ones, but after contacting both RIT and Wet Okole, learned the wetsuit material would not take well to any water based dye. I had a girlfriend (who spot dyes carpets) suggest I use a commercially available dye setting agent, but I'm not too keen on something which just "may" work.

Had I to do it over, I would buy the solid black covers for both vehicles. Wet Okole definitely offers well fitted, comfortable and long wearing covers.

I wasn't thinking of fading and since I live in Florida that would be a concern. I'm mainly trying to find a solution for "HOT ASS!" from the light colored seats that are already in it.
