Overview
The Smittybilt G.E.A.R. Rear Seat Cover in black, part 5660201, is a storage cover for the rear seat of an off-road vehicle. It is made from 600 denier polyester with a PVC liner and is completely adjustable. It uses the G.E.A.R. Molle/Pals restraint system.
The cover comes with five pouches that fasten with the Molle/Pals system and are built to stay secure under harsh off-road conditions. All pouches use military grade snaps and buckles and self-correcting zippers. The material is UV stable.
The cover comes in Black, Coyote Tan and Olive Drab Green, and this part is the black version. Black uses color code 01, while the tan and olive versions use codes 24 and 31.

Using a rear storage cover
A rear seat storage cover turns unused seat space into an organizer, but its usefulness depends on how much weight it carries and where it sits. Pouches loaded with tools, recovery gear or first aid supplies pull on the attachment points, so keep heavy items low in the pouches and close to the seat base. Light gear distributes better across the cover.
The Molle/Pals system gives a flexible way to add or move pouches as needs change. Before loading, check each strap and buckle for wear, make sure the zippers close fully and confirm the cover sits flat against the seat back. A cover that bunches or shifts can interfere with the seat belt path or the rear seat’s folding function, so refit it whenever it moves.
Dust, mud and sun exposure are the main wear factors for a cover like this. Rinse grit off the pouches after trail use and let the cover dry before storing it in the vehicle. Look for thread pulls at the zipper ends and fraying around the snaps, and replace any pouch that no longer holds its shape.
