Matt is useless helping me here. I just get from him, "whatever, I don't care."

Two covers I've narrowed down. The "custom fit" one I like, but I do NOT like the little antennae pocket that comes with it. I would much rather take the damn thing off, but I guess I can still do that and leave it flop around empty. I like the mirror fitting but I don't like the 2-3 week delivery because I know damn well these are not made to order.

The store's link to these two covers is where I got the first one. Happy with their customer service etc. Now, keep in mind that the Covercraft cover is sold for $218 on the Covercraft site, and at $248 on the CoverMates site and they outright bullshit about the MSRP. BUT - they add extra warranty coverage so for the $30 difference it is acceptable.

The description does not say if it has tie-down loops, only that it has the cable lock holes. Which are just stupid IMO. A scissor will unlock that cover and the only purpose for that would be so they don't steal your cover. Not an issue here.

I like the idea of the mirrors custom fitted because it puts less strain on the cover and eliminates some pressure points in other areas of the car under there, BUT - from the descriptions and photos on each of the "better" covers, I do not see tie down loops which are important should we have windy / blizzard conditions like last year.

1- CoverMates Ultima

2- Covercraft Noah from store 1

3- Covercraft NOAH direct from Covercraft

4- Covercraft Ultratech from Covercraft

Which seat covers did you get? I was looking there after you mentioned it. Been thinking of getting some but am leery with the leather. Sometimes if they have those stupid foam backings it will ruin the seats. I've seen the foam get "left behind" on vinyl seats. I fear that for the leather. I think it's the humidity that does that out here.

I got the neoprene. http://www.carscover.com/Neoprene-Custom...-P250.html No backing, just neoprene, just hooks back to the cover under the seat to hold them on. I would have to look to see how the cover for the back is attached, I don't remember. Was pretty easy. I got gray/black they honestly look like they could have come on it. I didn't have nice upholstery to protect, mine was pretty worn. 38k miles, previous owner must have worn sand paper pants.

I think those are the ones I looked at - briefly. Do they have foam backing?

The ones I got don't. They don't have any backing at all. If you want I will try to get you a picture of the back.

No, no need. As long as they don't have that stupid foam they should be good.
