a wetsuit retains body heat by allowing a thin layer of water between your skin and the various thicknesses of available neoprene. your body heats this thin layer of water to provide extra insulation and thermal protection.

a drysuit is just a thin waterproof envelope with the thermal protection worn underneath.

the Wet Okole (Okole is Hawaiian for ***) is a thin layered closed cell neoprene. the heat x-fer loss from a heated seat should be minimal.

Try GT COVERS!! They are the best I have ever had and are not the wetsuit type but wear like iron and so well fitted they look factory.

We have fabric covers made by covercraft in both our excursion & f-350, they seem to be working out real well. The fit is perfect & they come in different colors plus there about 100$ per row. With 3 kids, a dog & lots of off roading they are getting a pretty good test, & so far so good.

Ordered my Wet Okole's yesterday. The hard part is the dang wait, sometimes I can be so impatient.

That is good to hear. I was told 3-4 weeks so if they come in at 2 weeks it will be a nice surprise.
