That is pretty badass but no lie that would be miserable to be sitting in the back seat

Ha, I just looked a little closer at the link. They have a freakin' Camel Bak insert for the seat cover. Like the disruptive urban camo look. Think they stole that from my uniform.

I've had them on for over a year on both front seats, and I like them a lot. The flexibility they give for storage is excellent. I have reflective vests in a pouch, a first aid kit in another, emergency winter rations in a third and so on. I do readjust them every few months, but that's the same for any seat covers. I tended to use only a few of the pouches that came with the covers; I use several multi-purpose military PAL/MOLLE pouches instead. The hydration pouch is handy though. They do restrict back seat use a bit, but not as much as you might think. I took four people on a week's tour of Eastern England in 2009, and the people in the back seats said they were fine. They weren't very big though:D

Considering the lack of Kj storage space, they look very convenient and well organized, with side and front pockets. They would be great when camping, and for hiding small off road equipment. I like them.
Did not see a listing for KJ what is the best part number?

When I bought the covers, they were a universal fit. The only choices were black, od or coyote brown:) I went for the coyote brown - an odd sort of colour - seems to go with quite a lot of other colours:) There weren't any model recommendations at all. I got mine from 4WD.com - good service, especially as I had to have them sent to me in England, which some other suppliers were not prepared to do.
Mine's a 2005 CRD Sport.
