Ordered some Clazzio Leather Seat Covers for my new 2024 Silverado LT.  Ordered them on Monday, they are arriving later this morning.  Their customer service was excellent and I am expecting the product to be just as excellent.  I will post pics when they are installed.

Took most of my day to install these.  It was a battle, but worth the trouble.  These things fit tight, and the velcro that they use is better suited for holding a 747 to the ground!   

Removing the seat head rests is ridiculous.  Whomever the engineer was that designed that system is a complete moron and needs to be slapped into tomorrow for that design.  And their supervisor, same thing, for allowing such a design to go into production.

After the first seat, I duct taped the velcro tabs so that they wouldn't catch on the existing fabric as you slide and tighten the seat covers.  You need to really put some muscle into these things to get them tight and to get them to fit together.  Your hands will be sore by the time you are finished.  

The clazzio tool is indispensable.  Use it.  Don't wait.  Just use it.  

The console was easy once you get the trim tabs under the cup holder situated.  It takes time, and patience, but it will all fit eventually.  I was really impressed with how well the material in the covers matches the leather trim on the console lid.  It really looks like it was all factory installed.

I will be going back through the covers after a couple of weeks of heating and cooling and sitting on them.  They will probably need a small amount of tightening up after a bit.  

The back seats.  Make sure you take a break before attacking those.  The seat cushions are easy.  But the back, is brutal.  The holes for the headrest trim pieces are ridiculously small for the size of the trim pieces.  They fit, but you will be fighting em for quite some time.  THIS is where the clazzio tool is worth its weight in gold.  On the LT trim crew cab, there is about a gnat's hair worth of room between the seat and the rear window track (I have a sliding rear window).  I will be revisiting that section of the install in a day or so once my hands have recovered.  Getting the leather down tight behind the seat is tough.  It can be done, but it will have to wait till later to clean it up and make it look good.  

The J-hooks on the headrests.  Well, there is a whole new challenge for ya.  Use a screw driver to pry open the "J" part, and literally kneel on the headrest to get enough slack in the seat cover material to flip the material over and slide it into the J channel.  Get one edge in (by the screw driver), and the rest will slide in from there.  Once in, they sure look nice, and you better like 'em cuz they are not ever coming apart again!

Also installed a duha underseat storage system, and a weather-tec bedliner.  Yes, I have the factory spray on bedliner, but I got this to add a bit more protection when I am throwing firewood in the bed.  I also heard, not sure where now, that the factory spray on bedliner is a bit 'delicate.'  This drop in bedliner has a bit of cushioning underneath it to help with impacts.  I figure that since I use the truck for doing truck things, I should do what I can to protect it.  My 2014 was strong to the day I traded it in.  I am hoping for the same with the 2024

Trimming of the factory floor mats was necessary, but simple enough, to install the storage system.  The bedliner was as simple as dropping it in, and pressing the adhesive holder things to the cab side of the bed.

perforated leather...black and black.  I got 'em because the perforated leather is breathable but also backed by a water proof liner so that it would protect against wet waders, sweat, and grime.  

I was really impressed how well the clazzio material matches the leather material gm uses on the console lid.  PERFECT match, grain, color, and stitching.
