Anyone here bought and fitted seat covers made by UK Custom Covers for a D4? Only looking to cover the rear 3 seats (i have 2 large Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs and want to protect the leather). Currently have a Kurgo dog car hammock but it moves around too much.

Black Duck was my choice but not available.

Consider “Wetseat” covers.
Aussie made and fantastic.

Had them in the back to protect my D4 since new.

Thanks Tombie... i had wondered if neoprene might sweat and thus wear on the leather underneath. Not a problem? Also wondering if it would be thick enough to withstand claws from my two dogs (one is 40kg, the other 33kg). The dogs are generally the only rear seat passengers my D4 ever has...

just had a look at their website... and don't see covers for rear seats that look like mine... possibly they no longer stock them..

They are made to order. Which seat version do you have?

Being HSE it should be 7 seats, with the centre having the lower headrest/armrest? (We are talking 2nd row?)

In 9 years my seats look like new, I remove every couple of years and treat the leather.

I’ve had people and dogs covered in salt water, sand and mud on the seats without a problem. This includes people hopping in straight from the beach or an obstacle run.

The covers just wipe clean and the leather remains untouched.

The dogs haven’t managed to mark up anything at all in the seat covers.


Post a photo of your 2nd row seats if you can, so I can confirm the style.

hi. yes.. 2nd row seats. HSE yes.. 7 seater, not that the 2 rears are ever used (forever under the engel fridge...). Hopefully you can see the pic i've attached... no armrest in the 2nd row in mine, but the seats split fold 35/30/35.

Yep. That’s the correct ones that I have.
They’re image is generic and used over and over (sad), I phoned them and we had it done quickly.

They will respond to messenger quickly also.

I do actually. [emoji846]

Only front and 3rd row seats are without covers.

It’s fitting better and better as it “settles” (stretches/moulds) into shape better.

I can take some pics tonight.

Tombie - thanks again that would be great. I've rcvd msg from Wet Seat re the 2nd row seating covers but not the console lid question. I def like these more than the others i looked at.

Hey Tombie... I went ahead and ordered 2nd row covers and console lid cover in black. They responded to my queries promptly and i'm looking forward to receiving them.

They took a while, but I received the seat covers during last week and today fitted to my D4. Really pleased with how they look and fit. I went with black colour and black stitching. Pretty easy to fit with only the centre headrest cover putting up a huge fight. The centre console lid cover however is less pleasing (and was a b*tch to fit!). Will see how it goes but it does restrict the operation a tad when trying to fully open. Will see how the covers hold up with 2 large ridgebacks on them semi regularly. All in all i would recommend.
