So I grabbed a set of Kexby's (abrooks, aka Tony) rear RRC seat covers in prep for the VOT. My Disco 1 has RRC rear seats in it (a little more comfortable, has arm rest(s) for the kids, etc) so the Kexby line was perfect for my needs-at some point I'm definitely going to get a set of his covers for the D1 front seats as they come into production.
Overall fit/finish of the cover is excellent:
Because of the VOT configuration with the fridge in the 40 section I'm only running the 60 at the moment-but I wanted to maximize utility in my loadspace area, particularly the dead space below my cargo barrier and above my shelf-since the MOLLE strap 'tactical' version was coming into production I managed to snag a set and found the utility to be perfect for using that odd space behind the seats where vertical bins and such will not necessarily utilize-but soft pouches can nest well. The 'tires' pouch contains the powertank air gauge as well as an safety seal tire repair kit. The smaller Kifaru pouch next to it has FRS radios in it. The air ratchet is actually strapped to the bottom of the cargo barrier but the integration is nearly seamless. Seats still fold forward perfectly despite the tight clearance.
For the moment most of the time I think the seat covers will be consumed by the load out, but post VOT the fridge will move to the back, the 40 section will go back in and the kiddos will be riding in the truck a lot...and then all the more I think the covers will prove their mettle.
Given that I am unaware of a comparable RRC seat cover product on the market its worth highlighting all the more that Kexby's stuff is more than just good enough-it's a quality product especially at the very reasonable prices offered for US made durable goods. Can't wait for the D1 fronts!
