Hey guys, just bought some seat covers for my cars front seats, they are bucket seats.

They are not fitting correctly as you can see in the following attached image, they buldge towards the bottom of the seat.

Have i strapped them on wrong, has anyone else had problems with these?

Thanks

Paul

There just a universal cover so don't expect them to fit too flash, but they'll get better after being sat on for long enough. Did you get the back seat aswell? I like the black ones better.

My bro has the black ones in his EF. They did the same thing, once you've used them for a while, they'll fit better.

I hate seat covers so don't have any ... I'm not convinced they hadd much to the resale of your car when you take em off and say "look great quality seats" lol

They are very handy if you have been laying in the dirt or oil/grease while working under a car all day. When I used to do that on a daily basis I had a set fitted just to save my seats, but I wouldn't have them otherwise.
Cheers.
