Seat Covers?

I'm looking to protect my car seats and keep them nice and pretty. I want to keep the functional backseats, which seems to be the pain. What do you all use? I love my husky floormats that were suggested, so why not come back for more love?

Clazzio seat covers are great!

I asked this same question and the few who replied said Clazzio, so I ordered some myself. Haven't arrived yet, but really hope the about $400 price tag (have custom stitching in mine, otherwise would have been under $300) is worth it.

CoverKing seems to be the other brand that is popular, depends on whether you want replacement upholstery or a cover for existing upholstery as to which brand you choose.

2 hours. Not bad. My hands aren't good anymore, so it shouldn't take nearly as long for you.

Looks like I'll be spending a lot on seat covers eventually. Yikes! I love the ones that exl500 has from Precision Fit but they don't have orange. I want to get orange accents to my covers since the car is orange. Thanks for the cover information guys! Keep em coming if any more suggestions are available.

CoverKing has leather covers for purchase to DIY install
or if you want an installer and absolutely top shelf quality try Katzkin leather interiors
not cheap...
also note you can get a good discount on CoverKing through Costco

Also of note - Katzkin replaces all the cloth pieces, including door panel cloth, with leather, so the price is not crazy for what they do.
Lots of customization options, too, budget is the limit.

@exl500, these look great. Which fabric were these? PF has several with a similar color arrangement. Thanks.
