Looking for decent seat covers

Looking for decent seat covers

Hey guys. I want to get some decent seat covers for my car. I don't want to pay $400, but I don't want to get the cheap $40 ones from ebay. I had gotten the cheap ones off ebay for one of my old cars, and I hated it because they never stayed in place. I tried searching the internet for OEM seat covers, but I couldn't find anything. Any recommendations from personal experience? I'm looking to spend $100-150. Oh, and the other thing is that I don't have the 60/40 rear seats, and most of the sets I have found are for the folding rear seats.

Thanks in advance

thats because you don't know how to sew.

Are you saying to get the cheap seat covers and "custom fit" them? Or making my own covers?

How "decent" are we talking here? How much do you want to pay?

Check out my Wet Okoles. They are about as "decent" as you are going to get short of completely re-upholstering the interior. They fit like a glove and are very comfortable.

I paid about $600 for mine. Front and back seats and an inflatable lumbar support for the driver's seat.

I remember your post when you got them, and that was what I remembered when I said I didn't want to pay $400. I think its way too much, because for that I can just get leather Katzkin seat covers and call it a day. Yours look really nice, but its out of my budget.

I would be happy with the canvas OEM style seat covers that I usually see on cars, but I can't find them

Why do you need seat covers? You can save even more money that way.

you can make a cheap ebay seat cover into a decent looking seat cover if you know how to sew. that what i ment

Tell me more....

Does anyone know if Celica or IS300 seats will fit in an 8th gen? I found someone parting out a Celica (the most recent gen) and I can get the steering wheel and the seats

i'll take a picture of my 240sx cheap seat cover and post it tomorrow.

Heyy can you take some pictures of your corolla front bumper and post them up too? I was talking to a friend of mine about your bumper but searched and all your pics are removed. he wants to see it

yeah sure

Make sure to take some pics of the sections that you sewed. I'm sure I can find someone to do it for me. If not I can always try the iron on stuff.

My advice to you is that if your going to do it the cheap way like me don't buy plastic leather they rip very easily. Buy the fabric one-tone color they look decent if you fit it correctly to your seat.

The first thing you want to do is:

1. Test fit seat cover first
2. Cut out the loose ends that is hanging out of your seat. (the headrest)
3. Take the seat cover out and Sew the loose end (from the back)
4. When your ready to install remember to fit it in very tight (that why you test fit it first)
5. The seat cover tend to slide from side to side, so what you want to do is tie down every corner of the seat cover tightly.















and also here is the front of my corolla

When you say the plastic leather, do you mean what you have? I think yours is more like neoprene

Thank you for posting that. I love the work you did.

I love that hybrid bumper.

well... i can make duplicate of that bumper but it gonna cost alot...

either way it rips very easily, i'ma be getting fabric pretty soon.

How about these?

to tell you the truth those are premium stuff. i've never used premium seat cover before so i don't know. you should ask the seller if he has anymore picture and also if those seat cover fit snug tight. i wouldn't want to mod a expensive seat cover like that and mess it up. you have to decide i can't decide for you.

If I get these, I wouldn't plan on sewing anything. They say that they are custom and will fit snuggly. I already asked if I can get a swatch of the material. If I like it, I'll probably get these, because anything else that I have looked at is over $250.

Look what I got!! Custom seat covers for cheap. They are only the front, but I might get something not custom for the rear.
