Seat covers - Advice needed
Hi guys,
Can anyone give me some advice on the best aftermarket seat covers. Land rover ones are a bit of a sting on the wallet.
Cheers

I got mine from exmoor trim, iirc they were expensive about £200 for the set
But they do fit really well, they are spaniel proof, waterproof
And still look like new.
Try a search on here as I'm positive there was someone else looking for some a while back
Don't know what they ended up with
Hope this is of some help

Cheers Alan.
Preparing for a long trip up past fife at the end of the week. Going up to wick! Nice long drive in the D3 can't think of anything better.

I have titan covers.
heavy weight and slip over drivers and passengers seats nicely. Rear seat covers are ok but can move. the boot liner is excellent.

I have South African Melvill and Moon ones, which are superb. Exmoor Trim were the importers but unfortunately they no longer sell them. They were expensive though.
I think you do get what you pay for. Fit-like-a-glove canvas covers are worth the investment IMO, and it's great when you take them off to see the upholstery looking like new! An alternative to the Melvill and Moons is Escape Gear, also South African, available from APB Trading.
Re. Your trip, we're in Tain. Wave as you pass!

You will probably skirt round fife depending if you join the A9 at Stirling or go through fife if you cross the forth bridge.
Enjoy your trip.
Watch for unmarked money grabber cars on the A9

Agree with Peters, try INKA they sell on Ebay or you can ring them, great quality and very cheap, also identical to genuine LR ones without the LR tag Cheers Ian

+1 . Ordered them for my D3, excellent quality, good fit, fast shipping and reasonably priced. D3-covers are not on E-bay, but you can contact them via their site inka-corp.com as I did. No connections, just a happy customer.RLD Sump Guard
