Need something to protect the seats for now. I am awaiting some good fitting neoprene ones. But until then I am looking for something to get me by. I have already done the Ebay search and the Amazon search. I am curious to know if anyone else has insight into if Compass or Patriot seats are the same.
Thanks in advance.

did a heavy search on covers. Several companies say they stock but when you try to order it shows out of stock. Company called Sheer Comfort says they will have them in early June.

Compass/Patriot seats are not the same as the Renegade's. Been looking for covers as well but not much luck as of yet.

I'd say keep a look out for aftermarket car cover brands, it's possible they have already done their measurements by now, or maybe not, but one thing for sure is there will be a market for Renegade-specific covers.

OKAY
found some and they work
Amazon FH-FB050115 Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers Orange / Black Color
Not the greatest but for 30 dollars they keep the mud and sand off my seats from Turkey Hunting

I was looking on ebay and found some "towel" ones that looked good - I was thinking of getting one just to check it out.

(don't know if I'm breaking the rules, but here's a link to one of the ebay listings)

Nice Find! Back seat also or front buckets only?

Thinking about this set-up.

It all seats. There are a lot of color options there including 2 styles in blue. Same model number listed on both, but 2 different sets of colors:

FH-FB050115 Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers - More colorful, less features - $29.99

- Less colorful, more features - $35.99/$39.99

Nice find @kurtasmith I don't need them right now, but I'm sure someone else does. Good to know they are out there.

Make sure you check the owner's manual. A lot of new cars with side and seat airbags in the front (Dodge Dart for one) specifically say not to use seat covers because it will affect deployment of those airbags. Not that we want to think about accidents in the Rennys at all. Just something to think about.

I successfully ordered mine from Seat Covers Unlimited on Tuesday. Should recieve them in a few weeks. I called and they advised that they did have the patterns and were able to make them

 

[kurtasmith]

came with a one piece for the back have not messed with it yet

Hoping to grab a set of these, once they're available... http://www.coverking.com/kryptek-tactical.html

Hy Kurtasmith, realy seat cover is very important for car's.Before 6 months ago i bought a seat cover for my car from "bestforauto.com". It gives more reliable & better material with different designs & colors. I think you may get more comfortable after using this like me.

It is indeed something to think about. I know my wrangler seat covers have flaps on the side that will open up to let the airbag deploy if necessary. So be careful using covers that might hinder the airbags.

I was actually hoping for some old school Plastic Sofa like seat covers like my grand pa used to have. Nothing beats having my skin ripped from my body in the hot summer heat.


All Joking aside..

@NERenegade is correct.
As per the website/manual there are 7 airbags including the full length side curtain air bag and the seat mounted pelvic-thorax air bag which is the one that might be covered by a seat cover since they are housed within the outboard side of each front seat.
Therefore,

FH-FB050115 Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers

FH-FB051115 Multifunctional Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers, Airbag compatible and Split Bench

The first link airbags do not have the openings for the side mounted airbags but has all the colors that seem to match the current Renegade interior color schemes. The second one does have the cutouts but only 3 colors.
Why can't things be easy.

Also has the airbag cutouts. That one would look nice in a Anvil Trailhawk.

I actually like this tire tread design.

Guys for those thinking about the FH-FB051115 Multifunctional Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers, Airbag compatible and Split Bench, Amazon has it on sale on Prime Day. (Its $35 now but in a few minutes it will be much lower).



Happy Shopping.

Since I don't plan on doing much offroading when I first get my TH, I went simple so I still get the heat from the heated seats in the winter time

http://www.allthingsjeep.com/ibs-smiley-seat-towel.html

Got the black ones and will probably use them in my Wrangler until my TH gets here.

 

[wagales]

I bought a set from seat Covers Unlimited and im very happy with them. Look nice, very sturdy. Highly recommended

 

[rickrocket2]

Take a look at these?

Worth the $ in the long run. Just depends on how serious you are. The Amazon ones are good commuter type, but if you are hitting the beach or the wilds, maybe this is the ticket.
