Everyone I spoke with said very nice covers. I contacted them once to try and do a group buy on them. I need a set too, but i'm now leaning towards the neoprene ones from Wet Okole. Tired of loosing skin when I get in the car from the black vinyl. Plus I might order them with seat heaters since I don't have heat any more.

Thanks, I've heard good things and am thinking about a set just to cover my exsisting seats to keep them nice. I am looking at black with tan inserts and do my door panels tan with the top pad in black.

Went to Wet O just now after the comment on seat heaters. $333 loaded for a 914, but the form wanted to know what color did I want for the back seats. So they're not so custom but keep your seat warm. The headrest is questionable to me on a fit all. All the samples look too wide My local quote for installed new upholstry is $550 for a comparison.

For any brand can someone post pics of slip on seat covers installed??

They are custom made. You probably didn't select the none box for the rears. As far as the headrest, just select built in, as the 914's obviously are. But yes, for heat, and lumbar, 333.00 bucks. A little spendy. Covercraft makes the neoprene ones too, but not sure about heat. Found those for the 175 range. I see morph has a re-cover kit now for about 180, just doesn't include the bolsters. Think i'll wait to decide.

The seat savers are around 75 bucks for the pair, soft cotten machine washable air dry.

I just washed mine the other day. They say there discontinued you may have to do a little searching. I have an old pair that could be made into a good templet.

I have them on my car and they fit like a glove, you really have a hard time telling they are covers. My only problem with them is when they were fresh and new the dirt seemed to show. I have black seats with yellow inserts, along with my yellow car the interior looks very retro. Mike

Here's what the Iggee covers look like installed:

It's nice that they have a separate cover for the bottom pad. Most people think it's been upholstered, not covered.
