Still trying to get the velcro to meet too.

The velcro part is a lot easier if u have someone pushing down on the front in the middle of the seat and someone pulling the velcro from the back. Headrest was hard with 1 person and damn near impossible, but with 2 people just flip the headrest clazzio inside out about half way and just have 1 person squeeze the headrest and the other person pull down on it, 5 min job with 2 people, 1 person couldn't even do it in 1 hour. haha.

Hubby was helping me with the seat cover and we pushed/pulled, pushed/pulled. Gonna wait for a warmer day and a few times sitting on it to see if it stretches a bit. Gotta say, it looks great even though the velcro is not attached.

I did the headrests myself since he had to move on to another project. Took me about 75 min to do both with a hairdryer. I had them off the seat, inside the house. Probably a mistake but they got done.

My evo x was 728$ - red leather, with red suede inserts. only real leather on front of seat, fake on back.
Front and back seats, with Recaro emblem on both front seats and the 3 back headrests.

I bought on black Friday last year, it was 15% off.

Just installed my clazzio covers on Sunday. I didn't take out the seats out so it was much harder. However this is my second time buying clazzio seats and as the first time not disappointed especially with the price. Of course leatherseats.com is nice however I am protecting base seats which make more sense. Man the headrest was tough lol

Looks great! Mine are still in "Production" so I probably have many weeks to wait.

How about some more/better pics?

I will try and upload better ones later. In regards to wrinkles don't have much if any now. I waited since end of Nov and got mine in embroidered almost 12 weeks total not bad

Other owners have said "yes, wrinkles disappear" here on the forum. My covers were unpacked and sitting in a warm house for probably 3 weeks before I caught a day nice enough to work outside. We worked on the passenger side yesterday and even though I still can't get the velcro to meet in the back. there are no wrinkles as I've noted in some other pics. HTH.

I'm at the 1 month mark now, waiting on my order...
Still says "Production"... =(

LOL! I guess I must have missed a few posts when I didn't log on for a couple of weeks. Must. Read. Back.

Okay, can someone who has installed these covers answer this question from the instructions

The Bottom Seat
Item 5: Fix the belt of the front side with the plastic part

Does this mean use the little black plastic tool to "neaten up" around the area of the seatbelt?

it a finesse tool. you use it to gently poke the material around and behind the side panel of the cushion. so you can make it look a lil gooder. i used to work for lear seating, building seat for BMW X5 and Z4s. the come in real handy.
