Rugged Ridge
I have the Rugged Ridge full neoprene seat covers. Look almost exact to the Coverking except for the Jeep logo on the headrest. Getting them on was a bit tough at first and now some of the seams have stretched a bit, but they still look good after a full summer. Good cushioning and the neoprene does a decent job of holding some of your own body heat in the winter. For $120 for the front I'd say they're good for the money.

I agree wit joneszj Coverking is the way to go!
Heres mine
big pockets in the back
and they accomodate the 60/40 split for the rear if you have a 4door
These are the neoprene seat covers they are very durable and waterproof which is awesome! They have a suprising amount of cushion its almost squishy feeling when you sit on them so they are comfortable as well. The quality is excellent and it was real easy to put them on it only took my gf and I half an hour. I highly recommend them! The whole set was $170 but i got the jeep logo in the front headrests for an extra $30 so with that and shipping and taxes I paid $210

$170 for the whole set...good price i know i was shocked i thought i might have been getting scammed but it was legit...the site is mustmotoring.com they make them custom so it takes like 3-4 weeks till you get them but its well worth it!

and to those wondering about the coverkings being waterproof yes they are..neoprene is the material that wet suits are made out of! so no matter the brand if they're neoprene they're waterproof

x2 on the Marathon covers.... I had a set that are strong as hell and they look great too. My Wet Okoles I had soaked up muddy water and stained after my 1st off roading trip. They also started to wear at the corners from sliding in and out of the seats after about 2 years. The Marathons are a sturdier option if you are willing to pay a little more and wait a couple of weeks.

I have Marthon and like them on my 01 but plan to go with Coverkings for the 08 Sahara 4dr. Heard they are on sale at JC Whitney but haven't had time to check for sure.

My girlfriend, (so awesome) she got me a set of front seat covers for the jeep for my birthday last thursday. She got me the black and red coverking "Spacer Mesh" covers, which are different then the canvas or neoprene covers. not sure how water proof they are, but i'll hit them with fabric guard 303 waterproofing and it'll be just fine. They look great! i will get pictures of then as soon as i get home.
The instal was easy and like i said above, they really look great. I made another set of front headrest covers so they match the seat covers better (black with red stitching).
Pictures to come.
