    yep i realized both of those negatives when it was too late lol. also, not to detract business from C&D, but a guy from atvaddiction.com has some real nice seat covers in custom styles, colors, etc. and i only paid $40 for mine, though it isnt as trick as the quadtech pappy has

    as someone posted earlier...if you have a seat cover that has those thick vynil sides they are a MOFO to do with out wrinkles.

    what kind of covers do you have? cuz i know i aint that good although i have done that type with no wrinkles

    Just a suggestion but you may want to try heating the seat cover with a hair dryer or heat gun(low heat) before installing. It should make them much easier to stretch.
