What is the best fitting brand? PUI or Legendary?

I bought the PUI brand 5 years ago.
It's really nicely made. Looks great. But the darn thing is off in one dimension: the flap with the Velcro that goes to the back of the seat is too short. No way it will fit. That part of my car is all original; seat, seat upholstery, Velcro strip, etc., so it's not my car. Maybe they're better now? I hope someone chimes in with opinions on the Legendary version.

My wife purchased a black PUI last year from Year One and it would not stay clipped to the molding around the top. We were finally able to return it.

Yes, that's the classic problem with re-pop clips. There's a super simple fix: Take the clips off, measure the opening of the clip. Then simply (carefully) take pliers and compress the "C" shape to close them down a little bit. Re-measure. Try a test fit on the stainless trim when the clip opening is, say, an eighth of an inch smaller. Pinch down more if necessary.

Good tip Squid..The clips also may scratch your paint... I never use mine really.. once in a while.. I've had it so long I don't recall the brand. It is a well made piece. I bought it from either Y One, PY or TAMRAZ.

I have a PUI and did find that the clips need to be installed first and then the Velcro attached. So work from the back to the front.
