To protect against wear and tear on your car seat, wear seat covers that fit your car's interior perfectly. Choose fabrics made from heavy, abrasion-resistant and pleasant to the touch fabric.
Necessary
- - new car seat covers;
- - strong twine or a piece of wire wrapped in vinyl sheath;
- - nylon cord with a diameter of 3 mm;
- - needle and strong thread;
- - a set of automotive tools.
Instructions
Step 1
Select a set of car seat covers that are suitable for your car model. Remove them from their original packaging and study the instructions supplied with the kit, determining the purpose of each of its elements. If you are wearing heated covers, check the access holes and notches for reclining backrests, head restraints, and seat belts.
Step 2
Place the items on a flat surface. Pay special attention to the material of which the cover locks are made. If it is not strong enough, remove the standard ties and replace them with reliable nylon twine or vinyl braided wire.
Step 3
Simple manipulations with tightening will allow you to evenly distribute the forces over the entire surface when installing products and protect the material from tearing. Purchase a three-millimeter nylon cord from a fishing store and sew it instead of the usual ribbons located along the edges of the covers.
Step 4
Do not try to put on and fix the covers without removing the car seats. Otherwise, wanting to speed up work, you expose them to premature wear. Even the most durable material, but loosely fitting to the chairs, will crumple, constantly get lost and quickly become unusable.
Step 5
Having unscrewed the fasteners, dismantle the seats from the passenger compartment and put new covers on them. Excluding the deformation of the protective elements, fix them tightly on the car seats, securely tightening the reinforced straps. Carefully check all the joints and install the seats in the passenger compartment, fixing them with fasteners.
Step 6
When purchasing leather covers for your vehicle, use extra care when covering the seats with them. Please note that your excessive efforts can damage or deform expensive material. Avoiding unwanted effects, sew on the back of the vertical zippers to securely and quickly fix the covers.
