Inexpensive Seat Covers That Fit

OK, I am just looking for some relatively inexpensive covers for the front seats of my black 08 LB. I'd prefer to keep it in the $35-50 range and would like something that somewhat matches the car (black, gray or even a little blue as the seat fabric is the blue polka-dot pattern).

I saw some at Walmart for $28 and was tempted to try them, but I thought I'd see if anyone on here found any that may work better. Pics would be gravy.

Cheers! M2

this ?

i have some covers (one piece with one velcro strap on the bottom) the backs are fine they stay in place but the seat section moves around a bit and gets a little annoying when it folds up but they do stay on and do their purpose
they look fine for being cheap
what im gonna do is try to make some straps for the bottoms to hold it down in place better but im afraid that it might just rip the fabric cuz they arent that heavy duty

Those don't look too bad, although I don't think the vinyl bits will be very comfortable here in southcentral Texas. I might just pick up the set I saw at Walmart, if they don't fit I can always take 'em back...

Nice, but do they meet the criteria of "inexpensive?!?"

Those seat covers are gorgeous Nevada. How much would your seat covers be to buy? I like the black/white ones. Only bought a black yaris sol this week so i'm pretty new with it.

inexpensive and proper fit don't exist

even the high dollar ones won't be perfect, but they will be MUCH better. trust me, I know this from years of owning many cars and trying with both cheap and expensive seat covers. even the ones made for your specific car will not be totally perfect.

it's possible...but I know I had some custom fitted seat covers for my Miata and they were very good...but not perfect. I'm a perfectionist and it drove me nuts, hah.

i agree with Captain Slow, cover seat depends on its base seat sponge too ... it depreciate every year as we use the vehicle.

I have Clazzio covers on mine that I purchased from Microimage and installed in May of 2009. They still sit perfectly on the seats and still look as good as the day I put them on.

And, a huge plus with seat covers - Last winter I installed seat heaters under them and have been enjoying a second Fall/Winter with a toasty butt.

Here are some pics of my Clazzio covers:

Yeah that's half of a new set of bride racing seats :P I'd rather save the extra 400 for those then spend 400 on covers that might not even fit
