Have you installed a seat cover?

My mom gave me a very nice set of car cover, the front seats covers are easy to install. However, I could never figure out how to install rear seats cover.......

no it's not a leather replacement cover, just a regular cover with straps which are supposed to go beneath the seats.....

post up pix or link....

personally, if they're regular seat covers I wouldnt put them on. why cover up the beautiful fake leather that your car has?

Throw some LED valve stem covers, "JDM" mudflaps, rflame floormats and ziptie on an unpainted fiberglass body kit (for a different car) while you're at it. :eyeroll:

OP, do you plan on selling the car down the road?
if so, the covers would be an excellent idea.

but if this is your car for the long haul, why not enjoy your seats?

Some people find leather to be "hot" or "sticky" compared to cloth. It never bothered me.

^never sat in a 4g, but my 3g is the first car that I ever had leather in. its not true leather, but it feels great to me. not hot or sticky at all.
Just by looking at pictures, It looks like they have improved the look and feel of the faux leather in the 4G.

we're gonna have to go out to "mexico" so that I can feel both the sh-awd and the seats

hey i had the same issue when i got my seat covers, the rear seats dont fold down so i couldnt use them, only reason i have them is because i have a light color interior and would hate to see it dirty.
