Americas Tougher seat covers

[ColoradoMike]

You Sir should get a commission from Tougher

If I wasn’t already sold, you would have done it

Thank you Sir!

In all seriousness the Tougher covers are great! The communication, ordering, shipping......Top-Notch!

I will be honest....the installation was a PITA for me (hence the several beers over two nights) wasn't fun for me but I took my time and things turned out great!

The first night I did a deep clean of the entire Grenadier just because it needed it from a few off-road trips.

When I got in to the actual install it was pretty straight forward from the provided instructions.

I've been contemplating getting a set. For those with a MM Grenadier, which color did you get?

I have the sand color and it looks great with my MM G.

This was the day I was installing them. They're smoother and fit better now.

lol yeah these are the pics I am referring to.. the wrinkles and fit looks terrible.

Do you have more recent pictures, that show them with smoother texture?

I also like the grab handles you are using for the rear passengers. Where did they come from?

I made them. There was a thread on here long ago. 3d printed the discs and ordered leather straps from Australia.

I don't. I'll take some new ones and post them soon.

They look WAY better in person. I ordered mine back in January and installed them at the beginning of February. We elected NOT to get the rear seats as I have dog covers and a platform for the rear. We got the full front (including the cubby center console and the dash cover.

I agree that the 90% of the photos I have seen make them look saggy lots of extra fabric etc....

Ours look NOTHING like that. Granted it took me two nights and a more than a few beers to get them installed and let me tell you they look and feel incredible. All the fabric is taught and look/feel incredible.

We just returned from a 5000 mile round trip from Colorado to Maine for a family emergency and they withstood a ton of use and still look incredible. In fact, I think they look better now than the first day I finally got them installed.

When I brought our Grenadier in for service our sales adviser, Craig Barela was very impressed with them and stated that they looked much better than the "factory" options you could get and took some pictures for some clients that were interested in them.

We are extremely happy with our purchase. To be fair, I wasn't EVEN considering these until I saw a couple of Grennys out on a trail run at the beginning of January and was impressed with their fit and finish. Additionally, I was ONLY looking for a center console cover for our dogs that love to dig their claws into the center console but figured why not purchase the seats and the dash cover (didnt even ask if we could simply purchase the center console as shipping would probably more than just the center console cover).

If anyone is in the Colorado Springs area and wants to take a look at them in person just let me know and I will be happy to show them off to you.

SIDE NOTE: What is the bonus of these covers.... POCKETS! The Grenadier, as we all know, does not have a rear pocket attached to the back of the front seats nor any on the sides or front. Lemme tell you .... having the rear and side pockets are clutch! The Dash cover is also a MUST have in my book. Having the zippered pockets on the dash are great! On our LONG road trip it kept all sorts of things right at hand without having to dig into the center console or the minuscule glove box.

Wow! Thank you for all the honest info on our seat covers! We are definitely going to put you on our books as part of the sales team. Sorry it took so long to put on but as you now know, once they are on they are snug and don't move around so hopefully worth the struggle and the extra beers! Happy adventures and please send us some pics.

I've had the Tougher covers on mine for over a year. I figured I would help the cause by posting pics of how the covers fit one they are "broken in" and settle. I love them, worth every penny and hold up to abuse. When I'm in the field I'll be in and out of the seat with my climb harness and gear on. I've had everything on the back seat from climbers in gear, to dogs, to equipment tossed in for transport. The covers are great! The pockets are helpful as well. The side bolster pocket is large enough to fit a water bottle, or 750ml bottle of Tito's very securely. I just took the photos now so disregard the April snow flakes in the pictures. If we pretend there is no snow perhaps it will go away

How do the cover impede the side airbags in the front seats?

Mine are great and Tougher are really good to deal with - the little things count too - the pockets in the front seats between your legs, great for gloves, phones etc - really useful - have the dash cover too and that holds even binoculars - the bag now lives in the back with gear - They even sent me some extra canvas for us to make a cover for the screen and dash (we work and hunt at night and have to hide all lights )

So pleased you like them! If you are happy for us to use your INEOS pics on social media, please send to me. I am desperately looking for INEOS images that are using our Seat Covers. Enjoy them and happy adventures! Tatum

Fully agree with everything Colorado Mike said……except….. installation. With three large dogs whose sole purpose is to tell me it’s time to go for a hike and make sure that they walk in every brook, stream, mountain run off and mud puddle Tougher is the only way to go. I actually purchased an extra set of rear seat covers, just the seats, to swap out to put a clean set on while I wash the muddy ones. The covers wash well, air dry quickly and don’t shrink. Half the time I don’t even strap them in, the elastic fit holds them in place. At one point I had to wash all the covers, picture three large standard poodles covered in mud all deciding to shake off the mud at the same time…..yeah holy mud bath. The directions are great for installation and the second time is even easier. Hey Mike I know it is cold in Colorado but next time try taking off your mittens it might be easier to install!
