Polish seat covers

Post by templ8 »

Bought one on ebay about 10 days ago, arrived today.

Looks to be well made. Just need a power stapler now and I'll get it fitted.

I'd be interested to hear how you get on with that. They certainly look nice and I have been considering getting one myself. Is the material at the font on the main seating area grippy or a stretchy type material. It's hard to tell from the pics.

I reckon if you're going to fit a new seat cover, you may as well put a gel insert in there while it's open/

Its grippy, rather than stretchy.

Fitted the cover this afternoon. Wasn't as hard as i thought it would be.

Used an electric stapler to fasten it on.

Stitching and overall quality is very good.

Let us know how waterproof it is after being left out in the rain for a while....
Looking good, though.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
