My dog (will be) a regular passenger in my 2020 Type R and I want to protect the interior as much as I can. I've ordered Scotchguard for all the Alacantra, but I want to do more than that.

Looking for something durable, water resistance and not slippery. And at least for the front seats I want something well fitted. I've checked out CoverKing and a few others and can go that route but was looking for recommendations from folks here. What can people here recomend?

Also, other than the Scotchguard and covers, anything else I should be looking at to protect from the dog? (He's not a drooler, but we do hike and do outdoor things.)

Thanks, I saw some of their stuff, but without a comparable interior its hard to guess how things will look and fit.

No problem :) I did try searching, but the results are actually pretty short. Will try again and browse that thread more. It's one of the large ones so though I have looked at it, probably only a dozen pages :)

I'm interested in back seat cover for my 2017 hatch. I already bought neoprene front seat covers from Shearcomfort. They are hella expensive. The neoprene is okay, would not recommend it though, as they are not durable. I'm looking for Cordura fabric back seat cover. Can you looking into this when you are there too?



Update: It seems like Wet Okole only offer Neoprene for fabric type. Right now you can get 30% on Shearcomfort for Cordura fabric, I'm pulling the trigger for the back seat cover.

Can't help you with seat covers, but re: fabric protection - I did a bunch of research and eventually settled on this 303 product. And this thread is what convinced me to go with the 303 over Scotchgard. I didn't attempt the coffee test, but nonetheless I'm really impressed with it. Here's some additional detail on my experience with the stuff.
