A lot of people won’t like this but I’m bought some Britpart waterproof seat covers for the rear seats in my Puma, well made, fit well and definitely waterproof.
I have Recaros in the front so cat get them but I would.

The fit is excellent, they are actually tailor made. The only iss we had with the D2 was they forgot to include the rear centre console piece, but they sent it when we queried.Quote:

*Good quality work, they can't be faulted.
*Say Daz from Aztech 4x4 mechanical has recommended you!, you might get a better price again (and I get some good will) [bigsmile]

Well, I decided to to do something different... I didn't want to spend big, especially on the rear seat covers as the seats may come out once the kids stop coming with us, so I decided to buy some britpart ones from Paddocks for the rear ones and some supposedly better quality ones from a mob called MyCustomCar.com.au.
The front ones came first and I was happy with the fitted the front seats, I thought the under-seat base straps could of been a bit stronger but overall I was happy with the fit...
A week or 2 later the britpart rear ones came from paddocks... I wasn't expecting much but I gotta say I was very much surprised at the quality and the design and the way they fit the seats. I've only just installed them so our trip later this year will give them a good test, but if I knew what I know now of what appears to be pretty good quality for the price, I probably would have bought the front ones as well and saved some $$.
Saome pics attached...
cheers...

Don't buy them for the recaro specialist pro seats at least.
I have the supafit ones for my seats and the fit is not that supa...
I took them back as the covers for the seat backs were terribly loose and not a contoured fit at all. They did fix that on the spot. I also complained about how the base keeps coming away on the side. but was told that is the best they can do.
in my view it is partly due to the single piece of velcro they use to hold the hold base cover on. I sewed on some more velcro to try and stop the base coming off the seat. It improved it slightly, but it is still rubbish for the price of the covers. I have to keep pulling it back all the time. it is all bound up and not worth the price.
