Well your pictures were enough ot get me to order color swatches from the "W O" website .......... I think I will be ordering a set if I like the samples they send. They say the samples are actual pieces of the material they use to make the covers, not just a "close match" color printed on paper.

Correct. They send you actual snips from the neoprene material.

When you call back, ask for "Edgar". He has a strong accent that can be tough to follow occasionally but is otherwise great to work with. Their normal turnaround time is quoted as a month, but my covers showed up in less than two weeks thanks to Edgar. Also, be sure to mention that you saw my covers (the ones they shipped to Spokane WA in February, he'll know which ones). I sent them those photos hoping that they'd relax on their logo placement restrictions, and if they start hearing from more interested and/or satisfied truck owners we might get better response from them in the future.

Read my writeup in this thread. It took some work but can be done.

So I'm thinking I'd be better off getting regular matching headrest covers w/o emblem. Then take them to a local embroidery shop and do it that way.

HorseHauler, I have the same interior as you. I'm not so sure the headrests are leather. I will have to look again but they feel like vinyl.
Just the surface of the front seats are leather and suede as far as I can tell.

When I order my next truck I might just skip the leather interior and go this route. There are a few things right now that I would lose though.
I would lose the heated dual power seats if I delete leather, correct?
I'm told that Dakota and Durango can get dual heated power cloth seats but so far not in the Ram.

Wonder what neoprene is like in the cold? My assumption would be it works well since divers in the winter are wearing double layer neoprene...it must have a great way of regulating bodyheat.

Now I just need to figure out a good color scheme for a white Ram.
I doubt white piping on gray would look white for very long though.

Great looking product!

Excellent.
Thanks.

Can you get them with power seats? I could probably live without the power seats.

What pkg did you order them with? SLT?

Thanks again

I would love to do that with my truck. It has had a hard life and could stand some dressing up.

Very good looking.
