Seat Covers w/ Side Air Bags
I have an 08 4 door with side air bags. Has anyone found a seat cover that works with the air bags? Also, did it include a cover for the center console top?

I see there are a few threads that have discussed this in detail. Here is what I found if anyone wants to comment:
If money is no object (as it appears to be for some) then the Wet Okoles are the best neoprene covers. I have a set of those myself on another vehicle and they are good quality. However, to cover front and rear of the JK is about $600 (ouch). They even sent me samples after I placed my order to tell me my color choices would look goofy (they were right so I changed it).
If money is an important factor, the Seat Glovers are good but could have quality control issues and probably aren't as high quality material although they are 1/2 the cost for the front and rears. It also sounds like the Seat Glovers is a CoverKing product that is re-branded and is available elsewhere for varying cost. I just checked 4wd Hardware and see they have incentives for Smitybilt covers which, from what I have read here, are the same covers.
Nobody seems to make a cover for the center console right now to match the seats.
Sound like a good summary?

Smitybilt covers suck, i got them and don't recommend them. Some of the seams tore as I was putting them on, and one of the buckles broke. :( had to hand sew two places back together, was a pain in the butt.

For the cost, I can't complain. They've held up quite well over the last year.

4 Wheel Drive Hardware has the Smittybilts in stock, the quality has greatly improved, with the Neoprene now getting a UV rating of 4 out of 5. Also the stitching has improved. Right now I am offering them buy the front pair and get the rear cover free.
