Default Snap-On Seat Covers

I've got a pair of Corbeau bucket recliners I want to stick in my Sierra but the trim doesn't match. I'm thinking of getting some of the seat covers Snap-On make to cover them until I can afford to get them re-trimmed.

I've looked on their site and they are black with red piping which is spot-on for me really. Has anybody got/seen these and know if they are any good.

Thanks for the feedback. Are yours covering a leather seat then, is that why they slide around?

Bit worried about the piping now, there's no option to choose the colour on the Snap-On site
