V50 seat covers

KatesV50 · Jul 13th, 2009, 12:07

I've searched this forum, ebay, and google for some front seat covers that don't hinder the airbag in the seats. I've had very little success finding many options out there. The only reason I'm looking is after jogging around town it would be nice to not put my sweaty bum on my factory seats. Maybe I should just buy some Scotchguard and soak the seats. Or maybe just get over it :-). If anybody has had any luck or know of a good site to check out I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks,
Kate

Or maybe sew some up from large terry towels. A custom job for you or the seamstress round the corner.

Be quick, Surfs Up.

It's a tough decision without seeing any of them in person. I don't want something too cheap looking, I think I'm being too picky, but it is for my bum to sit on. Yesterday I just sat on a towel and thought about sewing something home made up to use once and a while.

I'm quick, hopefully it's chest to head high.

I think you found the answer after your last run, sit on a towel. That way you have the seats as they are meant to be for day to day use but you don't mess them up after a run. Seat covers will always look like seat covers. Leave a towel in your boot and sit on it when you need to. Don't over complicate matters.

I agree, you know how it is with something "new" and clean. I had some wet okole neoprene covers in a jeep cherokee, but it was my surf vehicle and they looked like something a jeep would have.
