I'm not looking for no Walmart covers!!!! I had to say that.

I'm looking for some pictures of your seat covers and the name of them and how much you paid.

Thank you in advance

Just a heads up you have airbags in your seats. I'm not sure if any are approved for side air bag seats

Yes, but if you do it could cost your life. Not worth it in my opinion.

Right now I'm using a bed sheet. I work in construction so some days im pretty filthy when I get into my truck. They're not leather so they stain pretty easy. The bed sheet has worked so far but its always falling off.

I had Okees in my last jeep, they are great. I don't know how the reconcile the middle storage. I'm pretty sure they would have the arm rest covered, but I'm not sure on the bottom bench storage. They were 200ish per front and same for back seats.

These are the ones I got for my truck, Coverking Ballistic Canvas Seat Covers.

They are expensive and for a 2014, they are meant for the side air bags, has it in the description.

Had these one for almost 2 years, there are some stains on the fabric but some elbow work this summer and should expect them to be perfectly clean and like new. I have had a dog walking on them and no issues. Plus my girlfriends two daughters ride in the back of the truck and if they can with stand those two factors, everything else should be a breeze. lol!

I think 12 and up came with side airbags. All 4th gens have curtain airbags tho. The side airbags improved their lacking side impact reading so they made it standard.

As for seat covers "made" for airbags I don't trust them. The rate in which they deploy is just too fast to predict what will happen with a cover over them. I mean if you get in your truck that dirty are you going to remove the seat cover when your clean after work? If your going to go through the hassle of puttting them on and taking them off then do it I guess, but if not tgen whats the difference of having covers or not?

Well I guess I'm not dirty bag filthy. I work in a bulldozer. Some times I get very dusty and I don't want it all over the seats. Now you have me thinking about the side air bags. Maybe I would be safer off with the bed sheet and just find a way to make it stay on without getting in the way of the air bag.

Yeah, I cringe when I hear people talk about putting seat covers in cars with side airbags. I hope more people read this and really give it some thought

Loud, they almost wash out the rest of the stock system. Just gotta move the sound to the back 2 clicks and mess with the eq, but you get used to it. It really cleans up the highs. But if your an audio nut it will drive you to upgrade the 6x9s and add an amp. For the average Joe its worlds better, I love them.

Ram offers Katzkin seat covers from the factory with several of the lower trims so their must be ways to make airbags work with seatcovers.

Katskins replace your fabric/leather they are not "covers".
