Coverking custom covers

I got a set of these for my LT a few years ago. They looked OUTSTANDING and fit like a glove.
Come in lots of color/material combinations too.

I looked at those also when I was looking. Also available through Costco.

What killed it for me is no back seat option.

Those look close to what I got so long ago. Prices have really changed..
I have no back seat so that was fine...

Kids! Mine doesn’t borrow stuff, he simply gets old Dad to do it for him , but it’s only once a year.
And I do trap myself by being so overly helpful.
At least he hangs out till tge seats are dry enough, once he brought his own towel

I use this:
https://www.tuff-stuff.com/products/foam-cleaner/
And this:
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Folex-36...SR36/202820334

Both work great on fabric. Scrub it in and use a clean terry cloth towel (or a lot of clean paper towels) and a shop vac. Let dry and say "Oh My".

I took 1980's Olds seats back from the dead with the Tuff-Stuff.
Installed them in my 83 TPI Monte Carlo.

The HHR upholstery is a stain magnet. I've never seen worse. But I've had good luck with various foamy upholstery cleaners, and anything with "oxy" in the name seems to work magic.

I also bought, probably in 2010 or so, a set of gray denim machine washable cotton (and polyester blend, maybe?) covers, specific for HHR. Love 'em. Didn't find then again with a quick search, tho.
