Need help with finding heavy duty seat covers

Hey guys, my brother just leased a leftover 2004 Jetta wagon.

He got a GREAT deal on it since they were looking to clear it out - last one on the lot.

He is a house painter and requires a wagon to lug his stuff around. He only drives a Jetta because it saved his life in a near death, high speed, hanging by a thread on a cliff car accident (pretty understandable).

Anyway, he needs seat covers to protect the seats from paint. We have the all weather mats and rubber trunk liner.

What are some places to get quality, heavy duty seat covers?

I am looking for something like this, but these are made for SUV's.

Any help would be appreciated

I can't personally vouch for these, but you can look at California Car Covers

Does the wagon have side airbags? If so, be sure that they covers you select are made for them.

You might want to try here http://www.wetokole.com/
since they are made from neoprene, I think they would be pretty impervious, but can't say for sure.

Thanks for the tips fellas. I alo found these guys http://www.seatcoverxpress.com/interiors.htm

Since the car gets crudded up (and my brother ain't an Autopian!) he's looking to get by with something not too expensive. He isn't concerned with the overall looks. It's just that he doesn't want to be slaughtered at the end of the lease with serious $$$ in repairs / cleaning to the interior.

I have bookmared your 2 suggestions and will show him.

Thanks again

Go to a local taxicab company and ask where a good seatcover shop is. They'll provide you with a reliable, low-cost shop, I'm certain of it.
