Seat covers
« on: March 23, 2022, 05:36:47 pm »
Lads, I'm putting my new MG5 on the Road next week. I got the Excite Version which comes with cloth seats (TBH I wasn't going to spend another 3 grand just for leather seats and a few extra toys...., and this one was the only one available anywhere in the country a few weeks ago).
Anyway, does anybody know who would do leatherette Seat Covers ( as seen on nearly every Corolla and Avensis 20 years ago). I'd prefer to just buy them and fit them myself as I'm down in Limerick and don't fancy spending a day travelling up and down to Dublin , and trying to recharge the Car somewhere as well.
I'm not looking for the €50 covers that Argos sell, I'm after the decent quality ones that will take a bit of abuse.
Has anybody else bought something similar and fitted them themselves ?

Hunting Lodge (79),If you have cloth seats you can go get Scotch guard the stuff You use to put on your blue suede shoes to stop them getting stained when you took a piss when drunk .Tesco do a cheaper version Punch Brand .Get about 5 cans change out of 30 euro .Try a test area first .Soak the material with plenty of the stuff let it dry and it will seal the seats give you enough time to wipe shit ,piss or puke up before it soakes in .I done it with Cloth seats in a Fluence including door cards .redone it 3 years later .Never had a problen two pukers and one pisser .Cheap fix that works .

In all fairness I did mean it rather flippantly.
