Senzhu Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hey guys, any of you guys use any seat cover/protection for your Legacy? I love my seats way too much to leave them bare and unprotected. I want to keep the seats neat and clean as much as possible. I'm wondering if anyone came across a good cover protection for both front and back seats. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLlegacy Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I definitely understand this, but what is the point of having a nice interior if you cover it up? Best way to keep it looking nice is to clean and treat it regularly. If you are still so inclined there are plenty of custom airbag friendly seatcover options.

Rahhstah Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 would you go with wet okole's to protect the back seat for a furry rider? I currently have a not so comfortable fabric. Think old canvas tent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talespin Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 would you go with wet okole's to protect the back seat for a furry rider? I currently have a not so comfortable fabric. Think old canvas tent. I don't think I'd spend Wet Okole kind of money for dog protection, simply because of the potential for claws to damage the fabric. I'd probably go with a product made specifically for that, such as this: https://www.chewy.com/dog/solvit-waterproof-sta-put-bench-seat/dp/53695?utm_source=google-product&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=hg&utm_content=Solvit&utm_term=&gclid=Cj0KEQiAsP-2BRCFl4Lb2NTJttEBEiQAmj2tbd4CGIa7AYSzrF-VvWfbI607ftlbd0ux8tcwPPaCwd0aAlyB8P8HAQ Maybe throw an old washable blanket over it for comfort, if the fabric is like your tent.

Senzhu Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 About to cover the interior of my car in plastic just like how Ice Cube did it in "Are We There Yet". xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLlegacy Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Scotch guard the seats and be done with it, if the interior gets too bad to clean up...leather upgrade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byll Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I have been looking for sometime, to find a quality cover for the front cloth seats, in my '12 Legacy Premium. I went to the Wet Okole site. Very interesting. Neoprene. Rubber? Sitting on rubber? I must be missing something. Help, please. Thanks. Byll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLlegacy Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Neoprene is more like a thin foam than rubber, think wetsuit type material. I can't imagine it would be comfy or breathable in the heat. I would still recommend some kind of reputable stain guard. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sit on the fabric, not the rubber. For seat covers that aren't neoprene, you might want to check out this site: http://www.seatsavers.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveande Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I needed something for under car seats in the back, and went with this one by Royal Oxford: ROYAL OXFORD Luxury Car Seat Protector - Extreme Heavy Duty, Obsidian Black Leather - Bebe by Me International https://www.amazon.com/dp/B011L86UVM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_j9B5wb0FN5CWM Haven't sat on it. Just need it to protect from wet shoes, spilled snacks, etc. Personally I don't love the style, but for the price it's not bad and it gets the job done.

FLlegacy Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 We have a seat protector in my wife's car with leather seats, the protector is rubbing off on the seats and the crumbs and spills still roll right off onto the seats anyway. Maybe try a puppy pad under the seat if you are really concerned about spills. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW I read through reviews of several protectors with similar complaints of junk rubbing off on the seats. The one linked above was the only one with none of those complaints.

FLlegacy Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 End of the day, kids are kids and stuff happens, even with my leather interior I would rather enjoy it day in and day out, clean it when necessary and then replace it with something nicer when/if that time comes I already have a plan for aftermarket seat covers. They will be perforated with colored stitching and maybe two tone. My daughter on one of her first trips in my car spilled a whole cup of pedialyte on herself her carseat and of course it went straight down into my back seat. Best I could do is wipe it down and dry it off. The foam is forever stained lol but the seat is no worse for wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveande Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I have tan cloth seats..... so there's that. Don't need muddy boot prints on the seat back if I can help it! I'll go with the seat protector any day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anothermasshole Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Anyone have a recommendation for a cheaper version of the Wet Okole style seat covers? I'd love to get a airbag friendly neoprene front seat cover without dropping $250+. If they exist. I live near the beach and sometimes get in the car wet after surfing, like this time of year when it's too cold to fully dry off outside. I normally just put down a towel, though I'm sure some salt water seeps in my leather seats through the small perforations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anothermasshole Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Thanks y'all for the options! The infina neoprene seat cover on amazon looks pretty perfect for my needs, and seems like a great price. I have black leather seats so should blend in well. I like the idea of being able to easily roll it up and throw in the truck when I don't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
