Whats your email first! I dont know how to post links and crap.

It took em about 3 weeks to get here which is unusually long but they got here!

What year dak you got first. Jonas said that the 2000 and older are a bit harder than the 2001 and up models. Mine was simple you just unbolt the seats (4 bolts) take off the new covers and then slide the new ones on. Took me and my roomate like 30 minutes to do it!

They also come with center console leather covers depending on what year ya got. They also come with 2 leather peices for the cloth door panels. I have those at the upholestery shop right now gettin done!

Thanks bro! Well it is the original carpet! The lighter looking material is the speaker carpet fron crutchfield that is on the custom box's I made to squeeze behind the seats. I am a clean freak so I have her detailed once a month! Full interior bath and all. Jonas will know exactly what colors you want. I wanted some different colors than what these were and he asked me the color of my interior (charcoal)and he said that the colors I wanted wouldnt match as well as the ones he recommended. I got the light gray stripes and the R/T is silver. What color is your truck? It would look a heck of a lot better if you got the stripes to closely match the color of your truck.

Yeah white would be too light I think. If it was me I'd have to get the white though. So it would match!

Yeah they'll actually shrink a lil bit and tighten up! Happened to mine at first but it'll tighten. Give it a few days in the heat you'll notice it.

Joes they are on the way! Check your mail.
