PRP Seat Covers for the Jeep Wrangler! Torture Test and Install Tips

- This time on the AutoEdits Jeep JKU Rubicon build up... we add a set of PRP custom seat covers for the front and rear. Spoiler alert... I love them!
Since I've been running the Jeep with the windows off and open top way more... the cloth Rubicon seats were taking a beating and I just couldn't get them clean anymore. So I ordered up a set of the PRP seat covers with the Edge blue vinyl and Xcel black materials.
Instead of doing a straight forward How To install... I'm going to recommend these two videos from their CZcams channel (it's what I watched to do my install and they are pretty good)
• PRP Seat Covers for '1...
• PRP Seat Covers for '1...
I'm just going to run you through the two main things that might catch you off guard... otherwise this is a fairly easy install for just about anyone to do.
Plus, the way I thought to put these things to the test was to install them... open up the Jeep and just leave it out in the summer heat for a month but that month turned into three because ... well... life.
So I wiped them down and shot this overview video. They still look almost brand new.

Thanks Jason - I wouldn't have come across this company without this video - I love their custom options and will more than likely be placing an order!
Sweetness! Hope the install tips help!
Jason,
keep up the videos!
I only watch your Jeep stuff.
But every video is filled with great content.
I appreciate it.
Thank you soooo much!
Another fantastic video! Love every one of them! Your opinion matters and love what you’ve done to your Jeep. Can’t wait for more videos to come
Thanks so much!
Love the channel, especially love all the Jeep content, love Pinto The Dog! As soon as this video ended I ordered mine - can’t wait to receive and install them. Or, more accurately, get past and through the installation process so I can start enjoying them!
Awesome! Thank you for watching and taking a moment to interact!
Great job! The blue with the black exterior looks killer. Always love to see Pinto in the vids😄
Thanks! Pats for pintothedog
Always good content and honest reviews Jason. 🤘
Appreciate hearing from you! Thanks!
Jeep makeover? It looks AWESOME now. But can't wait to see what you do to it. You've done well so far.
Well, not cosmetically... I'm really liking how the Jeep is looking lately. Axle and suspension makeover.
Wow, I've never liked the look of seat covers until I saw this video. These are awesome, love the colour choice too 👌
Thanks dude! Figured I might as well send it! 🤣
I've been dying for some seat covers, but I couldn't decide. New seats, or a good seat cover.
Thank you for helping with my decision! 👍👍👍
Awesome... glad to hear this!
I purchased the same seat covers 2 years ago and they are holding up great! They literally look as good as new still!
Glad to hear this!
did your have holes for the headrest posts?
@@woof3598 I don't believe so. You have to fit them and then cut an "X" in them and slide the plastic grommet in. Looks OE though and was simple.
The Jeep looks great glad to see it back seat covers are nice
Thanks 👍
Those are great looking seat covers ! You made a good choice !
Thanks 👍
Haven't seen your Jeep in a long time, it looks great! I have a black '05 TJ Rocky Mtn and just put the black and blue Bartact seat covers in it. And it looks sharp! I definitely am a Bartact nut, complete with the 4 o.s. handles and fire extinguisher holder. Keep up the great work, that is one clean Jeep. 👍
Thanks so much... Bartact was the only other company I considered and they make amazing stuff! I'm glad you're here!
Nice covers ... blue is what I’m looking for also. Great video with good info
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for the review. I just placed an order for my tacoma seat covers. Thanks to this video I got to see what the "x-cel" and carbon fiber fabrics were. Decided to go cordura and regular black vinyl.
I'm still thrilled with the seat covers!
Love the seat covers! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
Glad you like them!
Looking forward to updates. Good to see Pinto 😎
Yeah buddy! I have a pretty good plan for some fun stuff.
Nice, love the bold colour...cheers! 🐴🥌
Thank you! Cheers!
I was just searching for seat covers. For our "Dog Taxi", as well as for our customers. I really like these PRP. I'm not sure which will be the best material. As we removed our rear seat for the dogs, we only need the front. The hair of the dogs are sticking everywhere. they seem like a magnet 😂. Thanks for the video. Hope Pinto is well after the jump 🤪
They sell these separate front and rear and yeah Pinto is a heavy shedder as you probably noticed by the carpet shot... but so far her hair wipes right off the seats.
And yeah the wipe out really got me ... she was laid out for a second and in dog time that's forever but all is good. thanks for watching and checking in on Pinto!
On the pricey side but by far, the most premium seat cover option on the market. These aren't the typical off the shelf neoprene slip ons. The craftsmanship & quality control is top tier & customizable options gives you endless options.
I personally went with their Enduro Elites which I love but a part of me wishes I had just went with the seat covers to save myself from all the codes the Jeep starts throwing & all the work-arounds needed to trick the Jeep into "thinking" you're still running factory seats. Regardless of what route you go, be it their seat covers or full on seat replacement, PRP is worth every nickel.
Yep! How do you like the seats you have? I’m thinking of getting something from them for my mustang.
@@AutoEdits love 'em! Comfy as hell, feels like being a fetus still in the womb but didn'ttruly appreciatethem till after my 1st road trip. It's a good 4 hour ride to the nearest OHV park. Usually I'm fatigued after the ride but the 1st time I went after installing Enduro Elites I wasn't as drained.
Just ordered some. For my gladiator 😊. They do look 👍
Right on!
Super nice! 🔥
Thanks dude... watching your seat video now... nice work!
Mount Logan Wilderness is high. Aka Mount Trumbull.
From top it is 23 miles to Toroweap.
Bar10 Ranch is a lodge. Hinton Brothers. I like Kelly Point run, NPS. Grand Wash area too.
Looks like you got a fun color!
Figured, why not! Thanks dude!
Use a wide plastic trim tool to get cloth between upper and lower seat. Anti seize the seat bolts
Not sure about the anti seize but thanks for the tip on the cover.
Always enjoy your content Jason! What's your thoughts on letting them chill in the sun first before installing these?
Howdy and thanks! They recommended that but it was a warm day and they came out of the boxes ready to rock for me.
Looks great, I like to get some. But in red and black
I've been very happy with them.
Took rear seat out 2dr.
Love these seats. Going with steering upgrade. Rest stock.
With 2009 JK 109000 going with the run it until death approach. 3 years from now do total rebuild. Deathstar
Mambo super dyna whompin eefus cat mode.
Hear endless bashing of 3.8 but mine has kicked ass. Love it.
Just do FS NPS BLM roads. Nothing crazy.
YOU NEED TO DO AZ STRIP MAN. Heck with Moab. Plenty of atrocious stuff out there. Go in over Lime Kiln Pass run Roads up to Black Rock mountain. Come out back to I-15. Then go deep. No phone service. Nobodys coming to help so plan for that. Long Wheelbase and automatic trans ain't good either in 112 degrees.
The flap for the side airbag is really nice. So many covers don't have those. And with JK's having TERRIBLE side impact ratings, the side airbag is kind of important.
Weirdly enough... little things like that can make a difference!
I love my PRP seat covers
I know what you mean!
Matching blue seat belts??? I think it would look pretty good..
🤔 interesting... like how you think!
Love them that color is perfect for my cosmo blue jkur what was the color code u used
Just called edge blue vinyl
Great video. How hot is the vinyl in the summer sun? Seems like it would get hotter than leather and could burn you. I like the idea for easy clean up though.
Nope it’s normal.
I purchased them also but they are not perfect. The vinyl was waterproof but where the seat back meets the bottom cover it has cloth that when seat gets wet the water collected in the cloth so when you sit down you get a wet but.
Good input to get.
@autoedits Jason my brother, you need to get yourself a "Be Forever Furless" brush from Lilly Brush. It will aid you greatly in removing all of Ms. Pinto's fur from the Jeep and other vehicles.
I’ll check it out!
I installed mine a few months ago, love my PRP covers. Do you find you get ridges on the seat bottom section of the driver and passenger seat?
Little bit... reach up under the sides and straighten them out and re tie the chord.
AutoEdits
Awesome thank you! Also, I DONT recommend getting suede inserts like I did. They look great, but were a terrible choice for off-roading in hindsight. Keep up the great work sir!
You should put kc lights on the top of the jeep
Those are pretty cool
Where did you get the “Pull to eject” labels for the reclining handles?
shawn elkin he has a video on it, take a look through his vids. Look for the fire extinguisher recent one 😄
Yep, check the description on this video czcams.com/video/M9SOXtcMuBQ/video.html
Almost time for some aircraft stripper and matching blue paint on the Overlines? 😜🤙🏼
Interesting!
I was curious if you had ever considered the PRP seats themselves. However since you got the covers I guess not.
I didn’t want to deal with all the bells and whistles going off and kind of like the shape of the stock stuff!
Just for the record,after seeing your video i emailed.prp and asked for color swatches.i got a conformation email back but no samples.that was like 8 weeks ago.i had a buddy from out of town do the same thing and again no samples .i guess they are not trying to hard to sell there $800 seat covers..pity ,looks.like a great product
Covid may have something to do with that but either way, sorry to hear about it. I'm still happy with them.
That mustang though!
Glad you like the Mustang!
Love your videos brother!
They look pretty good. How much lift are you running again?
Metalcloak 3.5 Gamechanger and it's been fantastic. One of the changes I'm making is going with the Lock n Load long arm lift from Metalcloak to try something new!
@@AutoEdits heck yea. I’m looking forward to the video. You’ve got some great stuff 👍🏻
What doors do u have?? I love them!!
Check this video out on them czcams.com/video/Sar0b1DCQHI/video.html
How do you think the covers would work with heated seat? Question from Wisconsin.
Works pretty much the same but I feel where you're coming from...lol
Awesome video. After a year, would you still recommend the mess or would you do the vinyl? Thinking wear and tear and functionality. Thanks
Yes... seats are holding up amazingly well. Current video shows exactly how wellczcams.com/video/lZUFDcS33AA/video.html&lc=UgwvVYqSez5FJ8N7ev54AaABAg
@@AutoEdits Thank you. Just torn on mesh or all vinyl.
Thank you for the video. I have two golden retrievers that love to go jeeping with me. The problem is, the hair collects on my cloth seats. How do the mesh seats do with dog hair? I'm trying to decide whether to go with all vinyl or with mesh seats. Thanks again.
I've been really impressed how the mesh black material cleans up... no hair or dirt problems yet!
Wonderful. Thank you for the reply.
I didn't even know PBR made seat covers ...........................lol
Nice one! LOL
Hey Jason. Considering pulling the trigger on some covers. I think it's probably been a year since you got them. Are they holding up ok? I live on Maui, and the sun can be pretty tough here. I'd love to hear how your are doing in the So. Cal sun.
Howdy dude, these things look exactly the same... like new. Can still very much recommend!
@@AutoEdits Cool. Thanks!
Would PRP be able to put custom head rest logos?
Sure worth an email or a phone call!
Do you have good quality seat cover recommendations for JLs? So far I can only find one brand, which seems kinda difficult to install.
I don’t know if one... these guys don’t offer one yet?
@@AutoEdits nah, not yet, guess have to wait. Thank you for your reply.
Thinking about getting a set of these. Do they get very hot in the sun?
Not any more than the original seats.
Jason, looking at same covers hoping you can answer a question. Are any or all of the materials you ordered water resistant? (ie. no top and rainstorm, will the water run off?)
The blue for sure but I’m not sure the black mesh would withstand a lot of rain... they make a black in the same fabric as the blue that would for sure.
@@AutoEdits thanks for the answer. Love the videos. I’m jealous, you’ve one-upped my game changer with the lock-n-load🤩
Oh man... that gamechanger would've done every bit as good out there! I just was restless and wanting to try something a little different and am happy.
One side of my drivers seat is a little worn (inner foam is a little tired). Do u think it's worth replacing before putting seat cover on? I was maybe thinking seat cover might tighten things up a little but that might be wishful thinking
Solid thought process... these do "tighten up" the cushions a bit and might get you exactly what you're thinking.
@@AutoEdits I suppose I can install them and find out. Thanks for info. Keep videos coming
I know I'm late to the party, but did I hear "marriage vegetables"?
Why yes... yes you did. LOL
So does that make my children beef stew?
The covers are really nice, but man, I need a better step up and it costs less than those. But you do get what you pay for
0:03 what half doors are these and where can i buy them ?? !! ??

@@AutoEdits thank you so much!
🤙🤙🤙
Howdy!
Are these waterproof?
It's all marine grade materials so I'm not sure how much water proof or resistant. I've been in the rain with it a few times and they still look great.
Do they hold pintos dog hair or does that just wipe off?? I take care of a lot of dogs 😂🤣😂
Howdy dude, so far the hair wipes right off. Got your email and will respond soon!
@@AutoEdits great to hear...now I get to spend more money 😂🤣😂🤣
those look like factory seats....
I didnt like mine came with no holes for the head rests
Give them a call right away! Mine did have a little slots for each of the headrest posts.
marriage vegetables ROFLMAO
Thanks for appreciating that! I heard it years ago by Jeremy Clarkson on a Top Gear episode so I can't take credit for it but it stuck with me... LOL
So is it junk or marriage vegetables?
Jeepin Jason, the more you know.
It's all those things...lol I even decided to cut a bunch more out like "family jewels" "the boys" "twigs and berries" "franks and beans" ... you know, the greatest hits
What hat are you wearing?
Some hat I got at scotties castle gift shop in Death Valley 15 years ago.🤣
