strip them and put in the washing machine, or get them steam cleaned/wet vac'd.

in all honestly its not the nicest job, plus there are downsides that once a cover is removed the foam can be alot worse than you imagined and was being held in place by the cover and often they have cardboard fixings on the rear seat which f**k up in the washing machine and also the plastic fixings can make it hard to fit in a machine. steam cleaning is the easy way!
