I'll give you guys some advice. If they look good now, Scotchguard them. I did that when mine were new and never had a problem.

Keep your eyes open for cloth seat covers from an 07 on ebay. They changed the material to a stain resistant material. I spilled half a soda on my drives seat and it just pooled. I soaked it up with paper towels and it was dry with no stains. The fabric is called "Yes Essentials". I'll bet you could pick up a set for next to nothing as guys change from fabric to leather. They look identical to the 06's.

I love my cloth seat covers from GENO's.

They are easily removed for washing,and didn't cost an arm and leg.I'm looking for a seat cushion because these seats are killing my rear.I hate these seats !

Now there's a good tip, thanks!
Wonder how hard they are to put on though?

I scotch guarded the dickens out of mine the day I brought it home. It didn't help much. I went to Mossy Oak & bought black background camo denim covers. I paid about $70 total front & back. I have had them on for over a year & they look & feel great. I have spilled everything from coffee to a whole pint of simple green concentrate on them & they still look new.

the stains don't look bad, just annoying.
oh well.

can i get seatcovers for my 06 mega to match the 05 leather i put in my truck?

think the charcoal gray 05 was a one year interior.

uumm, seems relevant, so here's seat change pics:

I've got my choice narrowed down to
-the stain resistant covers off an 07 (that's the cheapest)
-CoverKing Neoprene from Costco (uner 400 US)
-factory leather take offs (575)
-or Katzkins which I haven't priced out yet.

I just had a guy clean my entire truck with a van mounted house steam cleaning system. They came out perfect. No more water marks any place..... i hope i can keep them that way for a while. He sugjested using scotch guard and keeping my drooly chocolate Lab out of the truck.
