Show me your Bartacts!

[KidBobot]

The Holy Molle thread got me excited about Bartact seat covers so much that I went ahead and ordered them sooner than expected.
(I have the Molle backs on my JTM Gobi, but I've been eyeing these car covers for a while now. Want to protect the great Mojave seats )

So curious who else has them... and if you would be so kind as to share some pictures of the front and rears!

How hard was the install? I only ask because they really look snug and form fitting!

I ordered the Black with Khaki Inserts... hoping they match or pair well with the Gobi (really the pinnacle of color choices Jeep has ever had the great wisdom to grace the exterior of any of their vehicles) of the Gladiator.

Thanks in advance all!

Sorry I don't have pics (-7 degrees out right now) but I've had Bartacs front and rear plus console cover for 2 years and they were a great purchase. They were not easy to install, very tight fit. I had an issue with a seam splitting within 6 mos. in the rear, but customer service was awesome and I haven't had a problem since. I would buy again if given the choice. Mine are solid black.

I have a set I installed in the front of my wife's 2013 JK (2 Door) not a terrible install, but a little tough on your fingers having to really stretch the material going between the bottom and back of the seat. But, had them over a year now, and they look perfect! The material is a tad bit "Slipier" than the stock JK cloth seats, which also make the entry and exit a tad better.
Would buy them again in an instance.

Does anyone have experience with their budget line? Wondering if they are the same quaility as the more expensive, just less features?

I’ve got pictures from just after the install. I’ll dig them up.

Sorry about the car seats. It was a big reason for getting them. I didn’t want to wreck the leather.

are those the budget line?

Those look like the premium covers to me, but just in a solid black, vs. having the colored inserts.
Damn, those look good. Maybe just run a lint roller over LOL...

I do believe you are correct. they have the molle system.

Looks great! I ordered mine with the Khaki inserts. I really hope they match well with the Gobi!
I have almost the same pouch set up in the back now for each seat (and each kid)... one pouch for waterbottle, and another for various trash, devices, toys, etc.

You saw the photos of the seat backs in the Molle thread. These are the only other photos I have of them. I also have Bartact's fantastic visor covers. I ordered the console cover but did not like it...don't remember why. As I mentioned in the other thread, I had the Trek Armor (now Bartact) covers in my '13 JK and liked them so much I ordered the Gladiator's covers well before the vehicle arrived...so I was able to install them a few hours after the Gladiator was delivered in August of 2019. As others have mentioned, installing can be a bit difficult. I've had absolutely no problems with them. The build quality and fit is simply the best out there. Back seats were removed in both vehicles, so I've only used the front covers.

I also have leather with a child seat and am considering these. Do you have to remove them to condition the leather or anything like that?

No. Tactical.

I put them on when it was close to new, so haven’t needed to do any conditioning. They’ve never come off.

I have the all black tactical ones same as the posted pics. Just wait till spring to try to install them. When you get them, open the box and inspect them to make sure everything is there. I was shorted the rear headrest covers but they sent them out right away. Don’t bother trying to install them when it is cool outside. I tried on a mild winter day and it was like trying to put a size seven shoe on a size ten foot. I almost sent them back because I thought they were the wrong ones. I waited till spring, laid them out on the lawn in the sun for a while and it helped a lot. It was a bit easier than the Clazzio leather covers I put in my Tacoma.
