I think it would be worth trying! You might take along some old clothes that you don't mind leaving there, so as to make room in your bag for the seat covers.....or sneak 'em into your wife's bag when she isn't lookin'. Another option is to buy another X while you are over there & stuff it with parts. Of course, after that, you may be sleeping in the garage for awhile. Hope your X is comfortable.
Whatever you do, have a safe & fun trip! Don't forget to come back.
