Seat covers on EBAY

Not associated in any way with this add.

Saw these covers then read sellers feedback. Lots of neg. but the guy has some funny replies to the neg.feedback. At least he has a sense of humor about it. They look and sound like very thin cheapie leatherette, that sometimes fit and sometimes don't. You'll get the idea.

I like the fluffy sheep ones from sams club. I have one, and while I'd give them a 3-4 year lifespan before they fall apart, they're pretty comfy. For the cost they are excellent. I am still on year 1ish of its lifespan, only minor deterioration.

I tried the Sam's Club ones. The fit was bad and they shedded terribly. I purchased some Low Back Premium models from sheepskin.com, the fit is good, and no shedding.

Thumbs up

great replies, remindes me of how much of an ass I can be when dealing with people on ebay. CYA is the only way to go on there.

Oh my... the seller's feedback is all too interesting. Overall though, 97% of the buyers are happy with their purchases.

Hey Joe,
Could you snap a pic or two of your covers? I like those from what I can tell on their site. How does it fit around the armrest area? Did you also get the headrest cover? What color did you go with?
Thanks

I got one off of the Brookstone site. Pretty nice.

I also got a heated seat cover from AJprindle and put it under the sheepskin cover.

Finally a warm butt.
