Default Has anybody tried these?

ebay

From the pics, these seat covers look alright. My leather is in good shape now but if it ever does get bad these might be a cheaper alternative to leatherseats.com and an easierinstall.
Has anyone had expirience with iggee seatcovers? Is the quality/fit decent?

Funny you mention Igee. I've spoken to Alice several times about their products and she's always been very helpful. They're prices seem okay and they've been selling on ebay for a while now from what I remember. They're located down in Huntington Beach so I was going to drive out there one of these days and speak to them in person an see what's up. I tell you what, if I have some free time this weekend I'll drive down there and report back my findings

Seriously, they detract from the car, I would rather have the seats I have now, which are all cracked, than try to make them look better with synthetic leather. The synthetic leather money should IMO be added to the fund to get new leather seats. If you're gonna do it, do it right or not at all. Just my 2 cents, but seriously consider the feel and appearance that it would add or detract from your car, and if it's right for you then do it, I'm just saying I wouldn't.

I personally do not like them at all. When they say seat covers they mean seat covers. They are nothing more than your average wal-mart or discount auto seat covers in a different material. I gues the perferation is a good idea to allow breathing but I can imagine that the amount of back sweat on a hot summer day is only going to triple and I am almost certain that moisture is just going to run the seats underneath. When you get both front and back it comes out to over 300, half the cost of the good stuff (if I am not mistaken). Also there is always the option to have your seats reupolstered, they can use a material that looks exactly like leather at a third of the price. My friend locally were getting front and rear seats and armrests done for around 550.

Heeeeeeeellllllllllll no. That looks extremely ghetto. As I tell everyone, just pay for the upholstery.

Default Two words:

Cheap Looking.


Look at the center console armrest picture! It looks awful at the bottom. And the covers look cheap. I would rather have fake sheep skin from K-Mart!
