Seat covers for Corbeau/Recaro/Sparco seats
On my LRI re-trimmed Corbeau RRS seats I was using an old Halfords set of generic seat covers, they are ok but the seat base parts isn't very elasticated and moves too easily, so someone sliding up into the car in dirty gear would push them off as they got in and get my seats dirty.

So I looked online and found a place doing much better quality items. Corbeau do their own 'seat saver' but I didn't want to pay that much and get them from the US.

These are designed for the seats and are a decent enough fit, the material is high quality, with streth panels down the seat sides, strong elastic round the base and also a full width double velcro strap to secure it to the seat base.

£25 each, can't argue with that.

Free delivery.

Ignore the pictures, they are NOT the RRS seat in this link.

They also do them for the Recaro Sportster CS

On your advise I ordered a set of these for my LRI Corbeau seats last week. I opened the box this morning to find what I've been sent is a set of Town and Country Universal seat covers? I'm a bit reluctant to take them out of the box to see if they fit well.

I'm going to drop them an email as if thats what they supply then their website description is pretty misleading!

after reading the website it sounds like a generic seat cover made by town and country that happens to be a not bad fit after " instore testing and customer feedback " on various seats

Yes, the company in question has come back and confirmed exactly that. I probably should have realised that for £25 the comment "These are designed for the seats" in the original post was unlikely. My bad!

And plus I do have severe OCD Laughing

Sorry for the late reply. Only got to fit them yesterday !
They are indeed a very good fit and it's nice to see the seller has added an additional photo to show them fitted to a seat.
As already said these are not custom covers as per the OP's post but simply a generic cover that happens to fit well Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
