DirtyComanche Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I have modded 2dr bucket seats in my 4dr XJ, and the covers are beat and gross. I'm not looking to fit different OEM covers to them, rather just a universal cover. Has anyone purchased any off Amazon or the like? How well did they fit, would you buy them again, etc? Just want a grey or black. Really looking for people to not have the first reaction of 'Eww' when they see the interior. :rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikekaz1 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Universal just means it universally doesn't fit. Thankfully there is a good amount of aftermarket support for XJs. And quite a few company's make XJ specific seat covers. They cost a bit more. But you don't be disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyComanche Posted April 9, 2016 Author Share Posted April 9, 2016 That's a little out of my intended price range. I know, I have $10k in the driveline and suspension, but heaven forbid I spend more than $100 on the seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just redid a set of tip forward buckets, no way would I cover them up, they look so nice, look nearly new and not that hard to get done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 Links to refurbing them? A junkyard set will be $100. My guy won't sell me the covers only. Would rather just order something on amazon and have it on my doorstep when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikekaz1 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Are yours torn and ripped? If their just dirty... you could always have then steam cleaned. My buddy has one at his body shop that I used with some "cherry bomb" cleaner. Made my seats brand new again. Just make sure its a warm day and you don't have to drive anywhere for a couple hours. Or you'll get a damp dumper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Mine are torn. I don't know if they will clean up given the nature of the staining. Basically they were stacked interlocking while they sat in a shed for about 5 years with stuff on them and they are rust stained. I'm going to clean them before I put the covers on either way, but I don't have high hopes. Cabellas sells some for around $20. I'll order them as long as they ship to me.

mikekaz1 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 You'd be surprised what a steam cleaner will do! Even a "DIY" car wash power washer will do surprisingly well. (Obviously take the seats out first) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
