Install is easy the driver side seat cushion has two slits that allow for the seat belt and height adjuster to go through. The back attachment piece has to fit between the back and bottom cushion, it is a very tight fit as there is a ridge piece at the bottom of the back. There are two straps on the sides and one on the front that are run to the back of the cover to tighten the bottom cushion cover. You will need to thread the buckles, but that is pretty simple.
The back cover fits very tight and is very hard to get the slit (right side for driver) over the recline handle. You do need to remove the head rest first and if you haven't done this before there are two buttons that must be pushed in to remove it, you will also want to recline the seat back to make it easy to get off. The back is held in place by three velcro straps that feed between the bottom and top portion and two velcro strips attached to the material on the back corners.
There are 4 headrest pieces, one large and one small. I found the larger one to be the better fit for my 2013.
Overall impression not a bad seat cover.
Pros: Not terribly expensive, fabric will breath well, easy clean up after a dusty day of trail riding, and easy install.
Cons: No access to the map pockets, thin material, subject to possible snags, for just a few more dollars you could get a full set of Smittybilt neoprene covers as of the date of this review (smittybilt has a promotion that seems to run often where you buy a set of fronts and receive a rear seat cover)
Would I recommend these sure, but there are other options. I would like to get a hold of other seat covers to compare these too. So if anyone has other seat covers and what to throw up some close ups of the material and fit and finish that would be great. If I were purchasing and time was of the essence I would probably save for a set of Trek Armor seat covers.
