Rear seat cover

bmw462 · 06-23-2020, 10:53 AM

I have Sakhir Orange interior and with a baby on the way am interested in a seat cover for the rear seats. Ideally I would like to find something with a snug, "custom" fit. Forum search shows some discussions primarily related to seat covers/slings for pet duty and seat back/kick covers, but not quite what I'm looking for.

Wet Okole makes a rear seat cover for the X3 https://www.wetokole.com/bmw_X3_seat_covers_rear.html. I haven't compared the rear seats from a G01 to an F97 in person but based on the configurator they look very similar. In order for our car seat to fit while preserving comfortable seating positions I have to put it in the middle position and secure it with a seat belt, so if a seat cover hides the latch anchors it's not a big deal.

Does anyone have experience with the Wet Okole seat covers? Any experiences with other rear seat covers in an X3 (F97 or otherwise)? Other brands to look at?

We got the Orvis one which is really nice and high quality. We’ve had good experiences with all their products especially the dog ones. Our 100 lb golden retriever loves it. https://www.orvis.com/p/grip-tight-w...protector/20h1

We had these type of covers under the car seats when our dude was little (many moons ago) - https://smile.amazon.com/Car-Seat-Pr...s%2C193&sr=8-5 . They're plenty adequate & effective. Of course, our dude wasn't a projectile vomiter, so we didn't have to worry about that. Congratulations on your forthcoming human. Wishing you all the best.

Same here for when my kids were in car seats...I've used the below one in multiple cars and they have proved their worth a few things at least. The curved edge on this helps with potential spills by keeping them from spilling past the protector too.

OP- Congrats on your forthcoming! The X3M is a great choice given the scenario...hell, its a great choice in my scenario with a 11 and 8 year old too LOL

I only have a seat protector to protect the leather from indentations from the car seat. I was lucky that our baby (now 5) didn't throw up in or outside of the car
