I got these in the mail today, tried to install the so the like they say "Fits like a Glove" and it does not completely cup the seat like the picture. Anyone Iggee owners have any tips on how to get it to do so? Im goona try taking the seats out and give it a try but maybe someone knew of something that also helped out the fitting. Thanks
The fit is a tight one. It will take time to break in. Some of the Legend seats are different among the years so there may be slight differences but I found that the easiest way for me to make a clean, tight install was to take the seats out of the car. Its really not that difficult to do. 4 bolts on each corner of the seat and then you will have to disconnect the wiring harnesses underneath. From there, you can fit the cover how you want it and get the cover tight in all the cracks and make sure all the hooks are nice and tight. Ive been using these covers for 5 months now and so far so good, except that I've already stained them haha.
I believe if you read the posts that others have made about the Iggee (myself included), they do fit tight like a glove, but the one "complaint" is that they bridge across the bucket contours because they are so tight.
I believe the picture you are talking about on ebay is a 2 tone black and beige. They used the 2 tone to give the appearance of the bucket in a 2D picture.
Over my 7 months, the driver's seat has started to break in and get a "bucket" look, but the passenger seat which has only been sat on 4-5 times obviously has not changed. It took a day or two to get use to this new look, but now I do not even notice. What I do notice is just how much better they look than the ripped seats I had before. They look good, feel comfortable and for only $84 shipped, were a great deal.
With all this said, if anyone on the forum has modified the covers to make them contour to the bucket, please post.
