When I get back from holidays I'll have a better look at WetSeats I think.


Hope you all had a great Xmas and a great New Year coming up :)


p.s. I have two young children and a farm. So need a waterproof seat cover permanently on.

Yeah, not too impressed with the coverage on the rear seats on the canvas either. Although i have no experience with any others to compare.

Fitted them the other day, the fronts are 100% covered and waterproof but the rears don't wrap around the entire seat, the bottom section at the rear just covers the top and leaves the leather stitching around the seat belts exposed meaning we will need to use towels for wet dog.

Mine didn't get overly hot when left in the sun, did get warm though.

Will take a couple of pics of them fitted tomorrow. The interior does look very.... different obviously.

Might ask them to make up some patches stitched on one side and Velcro on the other to cover the seat belt gaps when not in use.

Russrobe, Is the canvas a soft type canvas such as RobA was mentioning ? Do they have a lining underneath for abrasion protection ?

No lining, relatively soft. I wouldn't say abrasive. Nor soft. If you get what i mean.

I had no choice but to fit them on Christmas night while packing the car for the next morning we realized we couldn't physically fit all the gear on the back seat this time (first time camping for longer than 3 days).

So we had to put the dog on the back seat which can't happen without a solid cover.

Positives. No dog including ours will scratch your seat with these on. Our dog WILL scratch underneath things even if protected mildly.

Example, I've been wearing a think jumper over a shirt and been playing around when i copped thick red scratches all the way down my chest...

Decided they're too abrasive to leave on though. For camping with the dog only.
