Seatcovers

[Sponge]

I'd like to get some seatcovers, but need some that are safe for use on seats with side airbags. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Seatcovers are not recomended if you have side airbags in the seats, like your A4 does.

Though something that just fits over the seat squab should be ok.

Roofbox have 'UK Covers Waterproof Seatcovers' on sale. The first page states they have slits for airbags and would therefore be safe. However, after you progress through vehicle selection, it says they're not safe.

Their Walser Dirty Harry covers are TUV approved, but doesn't specifically say 'Airbag Safe'. Then again, it doesn't say they're not.

These guys do specific cover, with an airbag safe 'option'. But it works out at over £55 just for the fronts!

Do Audi do any? But I guess they'd be even more expensive.

Also suitable for seats with side airbags.

Dare I ask what type of activities you intend to participate in to require seat covers?
