Seat Covers, Continued
Does anybody have any experience with the
Wet Okole seat covers in extreme conditions,
such as hot or cold? How do they compare to
sheep skin covers in these conditions?
Today it was 118 degrees here in Arizona,
and my leather seats were quite hot!!!!!
Thanks in advance, Howard

I don't know about wet okole, but a high grade neoprene will remain flexible for quite a bit of heat. My bare wetsuit would get hot enough I didn't want to put it on, but a couple minutes in the shade and it would move pretty nice. I haven't tried it under 60 degrees though.
The bigger concern is what is the temperature in the cab when it's 118 out side? Neoprene is rubber and can burn/melt. I remember seeing what happened with a cheap wet suit in a clothes dryer, it wasn't pretty.
