Has anyone managed to source some decent seat covers for the Freelander, called landrover and they want £180 for the front set!

Not fussed about paying a bit to save the seats but £180 for half a job seems to be taking the a bit

Cheers

If you want good value try Inka on eBay. I got a set but sent them back - they weren't quite what I was after but for the money they were very good.

I ended up with a set from carseatcovers.co.uk. More expensive but a much stronger material. Very pleased with them.

just remember to make sure whatever cover you opt for has the side air bag slots in the side  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Yes I can recommend Inka, I've had a set on my seats now for a couple of months, very well designed.

Well I lurked around ebay until I was able to get some genuine front covers at a decent price because I wanted not to have any airbag problems etc and was impressed with the pictures of the genuine ones in the glossy brochures. Unfortunately, although the quality is excellent, the fit is totally rubbish. They are way too slack and are nothing like the taut and well-fitting ones in the pictures. Eveytime I move they move with me and are they are constanly ' rucked up ' as well as looking like cheap ill-fitting ones. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

Britpart do front ones only for Freelander. Got a full set in my Classic - very good value  * GONE. GS TD4 Manual MY2013. Orkney Grey with privacy, cold and clearview packs, armrests (a must!) and a spoiler.

Bought my seat covers (front and back) from UK COVERS. They've stood up to some pretty hard use carrying numerous muddy dogs and equally muddy guns around the shoot. Just do a quick low temp wash when needed. They're compatible with side air bags. No connection with the suppliers, can't remember phone/web details but Google will come up with details. 11 GS Bali Blue

Has anyone ever had any with the land rover logo? Sounds a bit pretentious I know but I thought they would look well!!

The uk covers seem the best ones so far unless anyone else can say different?

Hi All,

Just got a set of Britpart seat covers for my F2 GS - but having trouble fitting the blighters... There are three elastic steals with a Velcro pad on the end of each one - but only two 'counter' pads on the back of the cover for attaching them, one too few it seems to me?

There were no fitting instructions included, probably because its obvious to everybody but me now they fit!

Can anybody help please?

Cheers,

Nick

Yep, that's just how my genuine ones are ! Basically you have to fit 2 of the elastic Velcro ends onto one fixed Velcro bit. As I said above, the LR ones have a great waterproof material but they obviously outsourced the fitting methodology to Heath Robinson Ltd of Solihull ! FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

Thanks! Assume that all three straps go around the seat base, not under it?

Cheers,

I managed to get the front one all the way underneath (Between the seat edge and the plastic side trim). One of the others I hid away by temporarily removing the plastic bit where the seat belt is. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green
