Recaro Covers Suitable for Harnesses???

[keithiesbig1]

Alright,

I am looking for some replacement covers to protect my Speeds, problem is, I run harnesses and I cant find any covers with an opening for them???

My last set, which are now burst, I cut them open and finished them with edging to allow the harnesses to pass through but I wasnt 100% happy with the finish, just looked cheap!

Has anyone else came across any covers the accommodate harnesses?? Or am I resulting to the sewing machine again??

What about putting the stock seatbelts back in?

I don't know why people pay money for a nice seat just to slap an ugly cover on it. I would only ever put a cover on my recaro when the car went in for MOT. Now I have black seats I'm not going to bother with any cover. But to answer the question - Nope, never seen one with harness holes I'm afraid! All the covers I've seen looked cheap, I would have though properly edged holes should look OK?

Because they don't buy it to pose.
They buy it because it does it's just - supportive and comfortable.
And then they can keep the seat clean and use it. 👍

Fair enough, although I personally found the recaro more comfortable without the cover. But each to their own

I used to use a seat cover due to workin in a garage and the car being my daily. Was like a little treat at weekends taking the cover off. And your right was so much comfier.

They are there for the Mrs and my mechanic, but i prefer to use them. No point having harnesses if you aint going to use them.....

The simple reason is, i have custom Black and Yellow Recaro Speeds made by Recaro, these were not cheap and i now want to protect them.

There is no doubt its more comfortable without seat covers, but if i wanted comfort i wouldnt have bought a civic, lowered it, stiffened it and fitted seats and harnesses that hold you in like a baby! Its more just protection for the seats like in your case with the getting in and out for work


SO looks like i will be getting the sewing machine out then....
