I needed car seat covers for my Honda Fit because the fabric on the original factory seats are very hard to keep clean. They act as velcro for pet hair, my hair, feathers from a down coat, crumbs, anything . . ., I researched and priced many different options including custom seat covers. I finally decided to take a chance on these. THEY WORK!!! And I must say, for the price that is pretty amazing. I have bought seat covers at Walmart before and these have a much more true fit. The fabric is nothing fancy, but pet hair and other stuff is easy to brush off. I think the instructions are a little lacking, so make sure you take out all the parts first and know what you are dealing with before you tackle too much. They were easy to slide on to install, no gymnastics necessary to get them on. Once again, my car is a 2009 Honda Fit and they fit almost perfect. I imagine if anyone is looking for a seat cover for a car with similar seat shape, they would probably work. The headrest covers do fit a little baggy, but the seat covers almost look like the original seats.

I purchased these for my brand new Honda Accord 2010 to protect the original seats from kid damage.Installing these seat covers is a little confusing, especially since the back seat bottom cover has zippers just like the top. There are few instructions, and nothing telling you which piece is which. You're left to guess. They're complicated to install, with dozens of little clips, so expect to be climbing in and out and upside down, reaching into places you didn't know your car had. Some of the installation I had to make up on my own, and I was left with a couple of extra pieces that even the pictographic instructions didn't mention.
But they do the job for a great price, and the installation gives you a free workout!

I put these in a 2006 Toyota Corolla CE. They are somewhat thinner than the seat covers sold locally which cost about the same price, when factoring in shipping, for just 2 seat covers (front only). I wanted a full set because of my dog. These are a thin knit fabric backed with a thin layer of foam.The front set fits just about perfectly. The headrest covers are slightly too big but I cinched them up and I think they look fine. On the side of the front seats where the levers are to tilt the seat back, the covers clear the levers but certainly don't look custom-made there. I have 2 levers on the drivers side and I had to manipulate the cover a little to clear both of them and it is obvious that it is a slip cover from that vantage point.
The back side of the front seat seat back covers is just thin knit, no foam, and in my car it leaves 3" or 4" of the lower back of the seatback unprotected and not looking so snazzy (my seatback is beige and the cover is black so it's very obvious).
The directions said that one part of the back seat cover was bigger and that would be the backrest section. I couldn't for the life of me tell any difference. I finally made the decision based on a slight difference in construction and apparently I guessed right. The seat portion has a thin "skirt" that goes all around the vertical edge of the bottom seat cushion.
The backseat bottom cover fits very nicely and the zippers happen to fall right where my seat belt buckles come up, so I just unzipped the cover slightly to accommodate the buckles. Works for me. Usually only the dog is in our back seat; if you had people in and out all the time, maybe the zippers would come further undone although they seem pretty secure. I also wonder if it would be uncomfortable to be sitting on a zipper. I think it would only affect the person in the middle which is a pretty uncomfortable position anyway. I laid a crib blanket over the backseat seat for ease of laundering and a little more protection from dog claws.
The backseat seatback cover cannot be well secured in my car but I am using it anyway for dog protection. The consumer has to cut holes where they need them, for the headrests. I haven't done that yet but when I do, the headrests will hold up the cover. It definitely does not look good (see my photos) but it will serve my intended purpose of keeping my original upholstery in good condition.
Probably the backseat covers can be secured better if you remove the seat from the car and/or undo the upholstery panels on the back of the backseat seatback but I'm not going there.
All these "seatbacks" and "backseats" and "front seatbacks"!! I hope you can figure out what I'm talking about. I'll try to get some photos posted.
Honest reviews on FH-FB051115 Multifunctional Flat Cloth Car Seat Covers, Airbag
I bought these seat covers to "kid-proof" my 2012 Honda CRV after reading other reviewer comments. The front seat covers were fairly easy to install, although they do not have an exact fit. They do not have an opening allowance for the arm rest you either have to cover it or squish the material above the arm rest and stretch the rest out over the seat to compensate which does not allow for the entire back of the seat to be covered and protected from kicking little feet. Also, the fabric covers the automatic seat adjustment levers, but they are still functional through the fabric. The one piece back seat cover was tricky to install with the 60/40 split bench seat. It is also difficult to find the openings for seat belts and the LATCH hooks to attach children's car seats. Fortunately, I was able to make due with the opening provided and did not have to put any extra holes or cuts in the fabric. The head rest covers in the front fit fine, but the ones for the back are a little large. I have not tried washing these seat covers yet so I am not sure how they will hold up in the washer. So, in summary:PROS: very economical, will save seat surfaces from crumbs and daily wear & tear, fabric does not stick to thighs even in hot and humid conditions, overall fit is not perfect but acceptable, installation can be accomplished by one person with some patience.
CONS: front seat covers slide over the original leather seats under heavier driver weight getting in and out of the car, the fabric snags easily, cheap looking & feeling (definitely won't impress any dates!), hard to find holes for seat belt/LATCH attachments in the back seat cover, will have to remove the entire back cover to utilize the 60/40 split for cargo even though it has 2 zippers to try and accommodate this.
They are fine for the price and generally serve their immediate purpose, but I will be looking for a higher quality cover when it comes time to replace these.
