upholstery of cab seats
Getting in and out of my passenger cab seat over the years has caused stress on the seam which is not looking so good.  Anyone use seat covers or reupholstered the cab seats? :'(   Or if there is some fabric glue that doesn't look ugly after all is said and done?  Thanks .

I put on sheepskin seat covers bought at Costco 5-6 years ago. The upholstery was still in good shape, but the dogs liked the seats when we were parked. We also cover the couch with a navy washable cover. Reversible Fleece Furniture Protector | Home & Decor - Furniture - Covers &...

I never found commercial front seat covers that were washable and easy to put on/take off, so I made seat cover "throws" for the driver and passenger seats and the couches in the rear of my 2003 TK. (The upholstery has always been covered, so it's in great condition.)

Here are a few links to seat cover manufacturers and sellers, but if you can't find something workable, you might consider having the seats re-upholstered (expensive!) or making "throws" out of sturdy fabric or even using an oversized beach towel!

We have a WalMart 'universal' type seat cover. Cheap and effective. When they wear out, into the trash they go to be replaced by another $20 set.
We've never worn a set out so far.
