Seat Covers
I bought a set off genuine LR seat covers on flea bay and to be honest they are rubbish. Had OEM ones on D2 and they were much better quality and fit. Thought these would be the same but I m very disappointed with them. Sloppy fit. Keep partially coming off. Too loose. They have been fitted as they should before anyone asks.
Question 1. Anyone else had the same issue?
Question 2. Anyone tried the INKA ones? Are they any better?
Thanks

If I'm not mistaken the INKA ones are exactly the same as the official Land Rover ones except they don't have the LR badge and are a dam sight cheaper. Cheers Ian

I have a full set in their original packing. They occupy a spot on a shelf in the garage. Message ends.

Same here, after 8 1/2 years. They've had food dropped on them, sat on with mud soaked jeans, soaked from water coming in through the door seal, even washed a coupe of times and still going strong.

I've got genuine LR front seat covers and so far they're perfect. Great fit and look the part too, only downside is they are quite expensive! 2007 D3 XS Auto 101k

Are there perhaps TWO types of Genuine Land Rover seat covers? I didn't even bother puting mine back in the packet!A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill.

There are some genuine copies on eBay, I've had both, and yes the eBay ones are no where near as good as the proper genuine ones.
The eBay ones where much thinner and ill fitting.

I got an Expmoor trim set and they are a perfect fit, fantastic quality aside from the bloody arm rest covers which, no matter how hard I try, I can not get fitted. Gave up.
