thanks mate, been looking for ages but still no luck finding a decent set. might just get this seller on ebay to make me up a set of tailor made leatherette seat covers (liking the cream 8-) :

seem to be a nice tight and secure fit unlike the usual saggy covers. have you had any experience with these type of custom made covers?

you will be able to tell they are seat covers.

Save up more and get decent seats cos the standard polo seats are crap. They are uncomfortable on long trips and they sit really high!

One of the best mods I done was fit the porsche tombstones. Changed the ride instantly. Much more supportive and definately more comfortable on long journeys. Height adjustable also meant for a better driving position. (tombstones are for sale!)
