Seat Cover Recommendation
« on: 08 May 2014, 10:43 »
Hi Guys

Has anyone bought a seat cover for their GTI/GTD. I'm looking for any recommendations that will fit the sports seats?

Thanks

Mark

Is this the sort of thing you were thinking of?

Bought a pair of these for when I pick up my daughter when she has been riding.
They fit fine. They do look a bit tight but they have been fine so far.

Nice one corgi :smiley: they would look well in the GTI.

Thanks for the link JB GTI my brother has a spare set from Argos but they don't fit over the side bolsters. Now my seat can stay dry after my out door fitness regime.

Best to ensure they're airbag-friendly and they don't impede the side airbags in the seats doing their job, should the unthinkable happen.

Google 'airbag-friendly seat covers' and you'll find lots of options.
