Took forever, but the covers are finally here.

**DeadheadNM** · 11-24-2020, 10:14 PM

Wall art or do you have a K5 for those?

Nestevec · 11-24-2020, 10:16 PM

Here you go.

Nestevec · 11-24-2020, 10:18 PM

Originals are rough.

**DeadheadNM** · 11-24-2020, 10:19 PM

Sweet!

Nestevec · 11-24-2020, 10:22 PM

**DeadheadNM** · 11-25-2020, 08:51 AM

Nestevec · 11-25-2020, 02:38 PM

Nice pic

**DeadheadNM** · 11-25-2020, 06:19 PM

The parchment belts I got out of it are in amazingly good condition.

Nestevec · 11-25-2020, 06:28 PM

Who did you get seat covers from and how much did they cost. Looking for some to make my two tone red seat covers.

Nestevec · 11-26-2020, 11:10 AM

SMS did them. Can’t remember exact price, but around $1200

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 11-26-2020, 11:39 AM

I got a price from sms for 600.00 but that was just the front seats but never gave me a price for the back. I thought that price was to high for just the front seats. But maybe not.

Nestevec · 01-29-2021, 11:09 AM

Recently purchased a bench seat, buckets, and a rear bench covers in Highlander orange plaid from SMS. The bench and rear bench fit great and I couldn’t be happier. The buckets on hand are another story. Installed new foam on the buckets, and the bottoms covers are way too big and the uppers are way too small. Quality is good, but quality control sucks. I waited almost 15 weeks for these. Good thing I have a good upholsterer. Buyer beware.

Hi Nestevec
I have a set of highlander bucket and bench seat covers coming from SMS someday that i ordered back in the summer. Am now dreading getting them after reading about your experience with the buckets. Did SMS give any indication they would make it right? Thanks.

Nestevec · 02-02-2021, 11:01 PM

Haven’t even contacted them.

Nestevec · 02-02-2021, 11:29 PM

I’m happy with the bench in the truck, no complaints.

john deere · 02-03-2021, 12:07 PM

That seat does look very nice, I like the color. I hope you can make the buckets look as good. Keep us posted as to an outcome with them. Thanks.

Nestevec · 02-03-2021, 12:08 PM

Will do

Nestevec · 02-04-2021, 07:23 PM

Turned out better than I thought.

**DeadheadNM** · 02-04-2021, 10:33 PM

Those look sharp.
