I saw this compay would be able to make some tailor made leather covers if there was sufficient demand. However, the thread I started never really took off so I suppose you'll need to be looking at universal types. viewtopic.php?f=44&t=74904&p=702694&hil ... rs#p702694

It might be economic to buy second hand seats rather than pay for re-upholstery, but a Google for 'Coach Trimmers' may find a local company who can do it. :wink:

I know i've brought it up before but i killed both birds with one stone by fitting heated seat covers. No idea of the quality of these but like the idea of their grey colour coordinating with grey Bongo seats:

Thanks everyone ! So, no change for our bongos..what a shame I had thought that someone would hav3 come up with some by now! Not wanting new seats or re upholstery, so it looks like mikes solution is probably the best one..thanks mike !. I’m sure my dog will thank you for a heated seat...as well as me 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Just to repeat Pam, no idea of quality or durability on those but at a tenner a pop i reckon there's only one way to find out (or maybe liik on Amazon where you can check reviews)! A lot of seat covers dont look/last anyway in real life as they do in the advert pic. Good luck - keep us posted.

I think it has been on the site a few times in the past that people have bought Aldi or Lidl seat covers, when they have had them for sale, and given quite good reports. Maybe someone who has bought some might see your post and give an opinion.

Yes I’ve read some reviews of the , it’s worth a visit, but I always think people get there really early for good deals and when I get there it’s just grotty stuff left ! Perhaps I should ch3ck online first...just thought of that !!!

Hello Yorkshirelass.
I have just read your post 're seat covers. I have some hard wearing waterproof covers I bought about a year ago for mine, only I don't actually need them. They are green in colour. You are welcome to have these if you pay postage, which I estimate at around £10 via hermes

Hi Pam

You likely know this, but you can sign up to get regular 'news letters' from Aldi/Lidl giving details of next weeks specials. :wink:

The car stuff normaly comes round two or three times a year. 8)

There are a lot of mazda bongo and mazda bongo friendee 'car' seat covers advertised on ebay. I've no idea what they're like. Here's a link to one search for them:
